birthday weekend

My oldest boy had a birthday this week and we celebrated it today.  I baked a Chocolate Raspberry Cake with a creamy chocolate frosting and dotted the edges with fresh raspberries. Can you believe this is cake is made without butter or eggs, yep, it's vegan.


This cake was delicious, even Grandma loved it! The birthday boy was especially happy since chocolate and raspberries are two of his favorite flavors.



I don't like buying wrapping paper so I cut up some paper bags I had around the house and used colored markers to draw various designs and voila! wrapping paper.


This illustrations in this book are stunning, an all around great book to get for your birthday. In total, I think he received about 10 new storybooks which were much needed because he has outgrown all of the simple board books we have around the house. Happy birthday to my sweet boy.
