I’m what…?!
yes, Carol. You are 35 years old today.
I’m astonished with the thought that today is my birthday and I am now in my mid-thirties.
My age actually doesn’t bother me and I can’t help but think it’s because my life is undeniably full of wonderful people. This year I am celebrating my life- not me, but the experiences and people that make up my existence.
I am a fortunate girl.
The cake is something I wanted to make for my birthday celebration with my parents. My mom always makes delicious desserts, but I wanted to make this year’s cake. So I made a coconut cake filled with lemon curd and frosted with a swiss meringue buttercream. I liked it so much I made my husband take it to work- I would have consumed the leftovers for breakfast and lunch today, I swear.
