Yesterday was my nephew Drew’s 18th birthday. I could wax nostalgic about time passing and what a dream baby he was and how much he means to me, but I don’t want to embarrass him any more than I probably have with my gushing post to his FaceBook wall.
I live too far away to celebrate with Drew in person, but I still did some celebrating. One of Neal’s best pals had a big number birthday last week. We put together a low-key gathering as a little surprise. I made cake and ice cream for it, and I’m still on a sugar buzz. I used my KitchenAid ice cream attachment for plain ol’ vanilla bean ice cream, and this recipe for chocolate cake and this recipe for really delish buttercream frosting.
And privately, I celebrated this.
What has you celebrating lately?
Congrats on the article! I’ll have to snag a copy to have a look.
wow Big congratulations on the article!!!!!!
I want some of that homemade ice-cream and cake with frosting!
Congratulations! I will find it and buy it for my hairdresser – the only person I know who does Hairpin Lace!
