My favourite photograph was taken in our kitchen last winter. My brother and I were making a cake for our mother's birthday. In the picture, he is holding the cake and I am laughing. There is flour all over the table. We made a lot of mistakes, but the cake tasted good in the end. Our father took the photo before we cleaned the kitchen. I like it because it reminds me of a happy afternoon when we worked together and surprised our mother.
