Taylor turned 27 yesterday! To celebrate, we invited some friends and family over to enjoy a dessert bar at our apartment. Having no work this week, since we are on spring break at my school, I spent the day preparing and baking while Taylor was at work. I realized that I wouldn't mind doing this as a full time job everyday...baking, doing crafty things, cleaning, planning birthday parties...so fun!
I decided to make it Easter/spring-themed to try out some new dessert recipes appropriate for the season. At the bar, we had: robins egg nest chocolate espresso brownie cupcakes, banana chip cupcakes, carrot cake cookies with cream cheese icing, Starburst jellybeans, Easter m&m's, fruit, chocolate croissants, Red Vine ropes, bunny peeps, and for Taylor's birthday cake, I made his favorite dessert: cheesecake with strawberries. It was a good time with friends and family...chatting, eating, laughing, watching the Angels/Red Sox game, singing "happy birthday" and Taylor blowing out his 9 candles.
Taylor's feeling a little insecure about his age...realizing he's getting closer to being in his "thirties." So, make sure you to tell him how young he looks next time you see him :) He is looking pretty good for being so old :) His mom actually brought over a blown up picture of Taylor in his prime--when he was 4 years old and rockin' little boy beauty pageants in his day :) Taylor wore a crown on his head and that picture taped to him all night to remind him that he was once a young beauty king. We had a good night :) Happy birthday, my wonderful husband! I love you so very much!
