A couple weeks ago a turned 39 on a Sunday. So crazy thinking this is the last year in my 30’s. Ruth offered to make my cake and I sent her the strawberry cake recipe for the cake recipe Zara asks for every year. Chocolate sounded good too but I assumed Andrew would want a chocolate cake for his birthday a week later.
In the end Andrew wanted ginger for a change but Ruth did a great job on the cake. I gave her 4 inspiration pics for the cake decoration and let her decide what she wanted to do.
As you can see she went with own version of the top left. Ruth and I both love baking.
Doesn’t it look great?
Since my birthday was on a Sunday this year I didn’t get to go to Joes BBQ or Joe’s Farmgrill for a free meal. The sisters all took me to Balboas for a birthday treat after dinner Monday night. Michelle Weber and her family had just got in town from New Mexico for Thanksgiving week and was able to join us last minute. I love how well she fits in with the family. I mean, the Webers are family.
The owner overheard we gathered for my birthday and let me know I could pick a free cookie for my birthday! I tried this chocolate mint one that was fantastic.
For the dipped ice cream I went for Oreo, chopped peanuts, and Nutella. Very sweet but good.
So grateful for family and friends helping me feel celebrated this year.
