Birthday Cake surprise!

Yesterday, I turned one year older. I wish I could say that it was an exciting day but the older I get, the more I wish I could have just stayed 25.

While I didn't get my wish to turn back the clock eight years, I did get a very nice surprise. My husband (who I thought could only make breakfast food) made this lovely chocolate cake for me.

I don't know about you but him taking the time to bake me a cake (at the cost of about $3.00) means a heck of a lot more than him going to the grocery store and ordering me a cake (at the cost of about $15.00).

So while the economy is in a recession and we're all trying to cut costs, why not cook or bake something special for the one you love? Time and effort as they say can be a priceless gift :).

Now if I could just get him to buy my gift before my birthday instead of on it....
