Ah, yes. It is that time of year again, my birthday. Being one who has gone to pastry school leaves friends far too intimidated to make me a cake(I¢â¬â„¢ll eat anything people). But this year, one brave friend, was wonderful and stepped up to the challenge¢â¬¦.and did an amazing job I might add. Now I have to laugh because she did do trial runs(2 actually), so it made me feel extra special because she tried so hard. She made me a wonderful key lime cake(you know how I love me the key lime) and for a filling she made the lemon-lime curd from my tarts and then covered it with buttercream! YUM. YUM. YUM. Not only did I get it at my birthday party(Saturday) but I snagged pieces for my actual birthday(today…Monday if you are reading this late)….so that I can eat it for breakfast 😛 !
Bye for now, I am off to celebrate my mom being in large amounts of pain for 36 hours 🙂 (love you Mom).
P.S. For those who celebrate it, I hope you had a lovely Canada Day.

    I was going to make your raspberry crumb cake…By the way, I love your blog, it gives me great pleasure and I can’t wait to see what you have made, but it doesn’t say how many eggs in the cake. Can you help me, oh great baker? Thank you

    Happiest, happiest birthday dear Peabody!!!

    It is supposed to be 116 on the 4th, and I am making (or attempting) mini tarts with vanilla pastry cream and strawberries and blueberries (r, w & b of course), so I cannot imagine what my electric bill will be to keep my house cool enough for pastry. EEK!

    Have a great week for your birthday and the 4th of July!!!

    Happiest Birthday to you Peabody. Hope your day was really great. I feel for your poor mum, I was also in labour for a similar length of time with my second baby and it seemed like FOREVER!!!! 🙂 But the end result was gooooood!!!! My son is very special and I am sure your mom will be in agreement!

    We’re birthday buddies! 😀 I knew I had a good reason for liking you (the delicious food porn having *absolutely* nothing to do with my dedication to your site…)
    Hope yours was as excellent as mine, even though I _forgot_ it was my birthday until reminded of it! I blame it on the fresh mountain air 🙂

    Happy Birthday sweetie!

    I’m so happy for you that a friend baked a cake for you. We have friends who absolutely will not ask us back for dinner, they take us out – and I say the same I’ll eat anything (well apart from offal etc!). It’s supposed to be a compliment apparently, but it doesn’t feel so great somehow…

    Lovely cake 🙂

    Happy belated Birthday, Peabody! I know what you mean. Nobody ever has made me a cake, and I will eat anything too. I’ve been thrilled to bits when someone actually purchased a cake for me.

    This cake reminds me my travel in the USA a few years ago, deliciously creamy, soft…
