MY BIRTHDAY:Itβs been a little while since Iβve shared a personal update, so with my birthday this week, I figured it was the perfect moment to pop in and say hello again. My wonderful husband completely surprised me with this gorgeous cakeβI definitely wasnβt expecting it! I had actually planned to make a nutty berry crisp topped with ice cream (stay tuned, the recipe will be up soon)β¦ but now Iβve got cake instead! I also want to take this moment to THANK YOU, the readers of my food blog, for being here, for trying out my recipes, and for being part of this amazing community. Iβm beyond grateful for your supportβitβs what keeps me motivated, inspired, and doing what I love. And if youβre celebrating a birthday in May too, Happy Birthday! πππ I'd love to hear from you!
