Hey There! How’s everyone this fine Sunday?
We are wrapping up a Spring Break that included three colds and a flu so next week when everyone is back in school and healthy is looking mighty fine. Not to mention Wednesday is my BIRTHDAY!!!!
I found the ultimate Kate-centric birthday cake to add to this week’s list. It is a lemon cake with fresh blueberries and CREAM CHEESE FROSTING!!!! I’m almost positive that Molly made this cake just for me. I don’t have confirmation on that yet, but it has GOT to be true. I will most certainly be carving out the time to bake myself this beautiful cake, so stay tuned to my Instagram stories for all the details, plus lots more birthday fun. Anyone else celebrating a birthday? I know there’s lots of April babies out there. Leave me a comment and let me know!
If we must eat something else this week besides birthday cake, then I’ve found lots of good options from my favorite foodies, especially if you are observing Lent. And don’t forget if you make any of the recipes, make sure to share it with me by using #10RecipesToTry.
