Birthday Time

Jason passed the mid-30 mark this year and I thought I would try and do something fancy this year and make a cake completely from scratch. It took forever and while it was delicious, I'm not quite sure it was worth the effort. The cake part went pretty well, but the frosting was another story. I tried adding raspberries to the middle frosting (it was a 3 layer cake) and because they were frozen and a little soupy they ended up making the frosting a giant goopy mess. It squished out the sides and was dripping off of the plate and all over everywhere. Lesson learned. I won't ever put frozen fruit in a frosting again. It was mmm mmm good though and it made the man happy so end the end I was happy because he was happy. I now know for sure that my calling is not in cake making!

Happy birthday Jas! I love you!
