Tiramisu was her favorite dessert

Tiramisu was my friend Donna's favorite dessert.  Donna was cremated when she died last year, so today her sister and I took her ashes to a scatter garden in a cemetery nearby.  The two of us had our own small "celebration" of Donna's life.  Then we went to celebrate with two things that we knew Donna really liked to eat:  crispy fries from Five Guys and tiramisu.  Salty and sweet.  First, we went to the scatter garden:

Now, her ashes are beneath that third stone (on the right), and a plaque will be added soon to the marker behind it.  From the cemetery, we went to get the fries and tiramisu.  Then we drove back to the Crown Center, where Donna and I lived, and sat at a table in the grassy area outside to eat and talk.

I forgot to add that Donna was known for sharing candy here at Crown.  So when we got the tiramisu, we also bought a bag of mini-candies.  While we chatted at a table in the grassy area, we called people over to share a bite or two of candy in Donna's name.  They remembered, and they grinned.  And then this robin came along.  It was almost like Donna sent it to brighten our day and see what we were doing.  I think it's been a very good day.  (Click to enlarge photo.)
