Happy, Happy Birthday, Erin! I share many of your sentiments about life/dreams/expectations in my late 20’s. Thanks for sharing! And this mocha cake is to-die-for!
Happy Birthday! The cake looks amazing, I wish I could try it but it’s a bit tricky to bake while backpacking. It will definitely be on my list for once I’ve returned home though. You have made me feel a bit better about my own 29th birthday this year, although you seem to have achieved so much for your late twenties. An inspiration! Have a fantastic day and enjoy the rest of your cake (if there is any left).
Happy Birthday! I hope you get to enjoy some of the haunts around Milwaukee. Maybe a trip to Colectivo for more coffee? Their coffee is always a special treat for me on my flights back to Minneapolis from Milwaukee.
Whenever you ask yourself, “Should I be too mature for this?” 99% of the time your answer should be, “NO!” and do it. The day you stop asking yourself if you should do this silly, fun, harmless thing is the day you become old. Enjoy your day and go for it!
happy birthday erin! my 29th birthday cake was a funfetti cake with tons o’ sprinkles made by my husband. this year for my 30th (this past monday…yikes) he made me cinnamon rolls. not really a grown up bday dessert but oh well! :) they were super tasty. enjoy your day! (and i still have to go get my free starbucks bday coffee before it expires!) :)
Happiest birthday wishes, dear friend! I am so blessed to have gotten to know you this year. You are such a gem and I have learned so much from you and your wisdom — including the idea that this mocha cake is the right thing to do for one’s birthday. I couldn’t agree more. xoxo
Happy Birthday, Friend! I wish we could celebrate in person with a cocktail and this cake. It’s FAB. Glad you went over the top with it! I hope you have a wonderful weekend! XO
Wishing you a very happy birthday, Erin! I will be turning 27 in June, and I really understand what you mean about the age. This cake looks perfect for celebrating!
If you ever ever give up your yummy cake for breakfast that you experience with pure joy on your birthday, then that is THE time to examine your life. It would be a sign that it had gone a bit sideways. Happy Birthday! And what a luscious cake!
Happy Birthday sweet friend! It’s totally OK to make yourself a cake especially when it looks like this divine chocolate one.
