Happy Birthday to Katie

Katie's birthday was November 20, and Laynie made a wacky cake, as requested. I made the frosting and decorated it. Unfortunately the gel icing tube ran out, and I could only write, "Happy Birthday K." I am having the worst luck with store-bought icings this year. (But I was feeling like crap that day and really busy--that's why Laynie made the cake and bought that decorating gel.) The cake tasted great, and the mint frosting was delicious.

Look at all those candles. She's so old.

Katie is so photogenic.

See? She's beautiful!

Hope your wish comes true, Kate!

It's Been a Week, So I Guess I'll Post Something

How can I not have anything to say after a week? And my birthday week, at that. Alright, I'll talk about my birthday.

I'm 31 now, which doesn't feel right. Is that what happens as you get older? The label doesn't feel accurate.

Laynie and I went out to Melting Pot for my birthday, which was great. Our server was excellent, and the menu had just changed, so we got to try a new main course. It was a relaxing dinner, and I don't have much to say about it.
