I Had A Most Wonderful Birthday........

I had a wonderful birthday! You have to have cake for your birthday, so I made a chocolate cake (thanks Duncan Hines) for my birthday. I added a little applesauce to the batter and did it ever turn out wonderful! Very moist and absolutely the best cake I ever made! I didn't have any icing but I had a half jar of Nutella (hazelnut flavored chocolate spread--you can find it in the peanut butter aisle) and I frosted it with that. OH YUM! That slight hazelnut taste with the chocolate cake..WOW! Try it sometime. Like I said, the best cake I ever made! I had a piece for breakfast and one for dessert this evening. Well, on your birthday you're entitled to eat as much cake as you want:-)

I got cards and phone calls from all of my best and dearest friends. An absolutely wonderful day. I didn't even mind turning 61!

What can I say? I'm so blessed! I thank God for a truly wonderful blessed day!

  2. I' so sorry I missed your B-day! Happy Birthday! I saw on Facebook that you had a birthday this month, but I couldn't find the day. I'm glad you had a great day! And YES, Nutella is some awesome stuff. I like to take it and put it in wantons and make chocolate raviolis! Take care and I too hope your "kids" are behaved! ;0)
