Inside: The best 50th birthday cakes and unique 50th birthday games.
I love the awesome look that getting older has these days; from 50th birthday cake ideas to running after life bucket lists. While I am still far from this number, but still firmly in my 30’s, fifty doesn’t seem quite so far away or scary as it once was. With Don Draper starting Mad Men at age 42, the character is nearing this milestone with the final 1/2 season approaching. So in honor of 50 looking pretty freaking cool these days – here is a collection of easy birthday cake for turning 50!
