Sweet Invitation[/caption] It's a testament to the quality of the man when a simple but sweet invitation can draw friends and family from all over the globe. Bob T. celebrated his 70th birthday among such people on Sunday. Friends from Russia, Italy, Canada, and all over the States came to wish him a very special day.

Imagine that, knifemakers were in attendence.Joe Cordova, Luc Burnley, Sal Glesser, Bob in his crown, and Richard Rogers[/caption] Even with over 50 guests no one went hungry, with 4 heaping platters of sandwiches made from homemade French baguettes -- made specially for Bob by his French friend the baker; 11, yes 11 pies homemade by Suz and Melissa. And to top it off a beautiful cake made by neighbors, 15 year old Lindsey and her mom. [caption id="attachment_437" align="alignleft" width="300"]
