My birthday is later this week so tonight we went over to N’s parents’ house for a little family dinner.
It was delicious and we finished the evening with two (!) birthday cakes, one from our favorite vegan bakery in Salt Lake, City Cakes. Ever since we found out about E’s food allergies all of our family’s birthday cakes have been vegan and City Cake’s lemon cake is my favorite. It’s incredibly moist, almost like pound cake, and has a great flavor. I wish I had the recipe.
We’ll probably take the kids out for a low-key dinner (maybe fish tacos?) on my birthday and then on Saturday N and I are going out to eat at a Japanese place I’m excited about.
I always try to take full advantage of any excuses not to cook dinner 🙂
