Happy Birthday Chris!!

Today is Chris’ 35th birthday. Daphne & I are home, making cupcakes and cleaning the house in anticipation of the weekend’s festivities. Chris requested a simple white or yellow cake with buttercream frosting and I thought cupcakes would be more fun, and easier for portion control. I’m trying out Amy Sedaris’ famous cupcake recipe and so far it’s pretty good. They remind me of the cupcakes from Whole Foods, dense and not overly sweet. If you normally get your cake from a box then you probably won’t like these. I look forward to trying them with icing.

Tonight we are keeping it simple- quick dinner at Five Guys, Starbucks, then looking at Christmas lights. Tomorrow we feast on filet mignon from Whole Foods (Side note- the meat at Whole Foods is worth the splurge. We don’t normally spend $30/lb on meat but this is worth every penny. It cooks up so tender and flavorful it’s better than what you can get at most restaurants, cheaper too.) and attempt one last time to get a Christmas card shot of Daphne.

Anyway, happy birthday sweetie!!!! Hope you have a wonderful day. We love you! - Jen & Daphne
