Sugar, Sugar, da da da da da da, oh Honey, Honey

The easiest comfort food around, is sugar. Alright, so maybe it's more of a spice, ingredient, etc, but it can make most things instantly better-- which is why we've been recently implementing it into more and more things.

Sugar is an essential part to sweet treats, most specifically birthdays. Although we will soon be celebrating Kayla & Meg's days, we just partied it up for Heather's this past weekend. To simply celebrate, we made some J e l l - O.

Prepping.

Lime, Raspberry, Mixed fruit, and Cherry.

Feeling a little awkward putting these in the fridge as Steve & Chris stare us down.

Had to turn to the pie dish with overflow.

Just kidding, it's Heather!

Jell-O went over well on Saturday, but the real hit of the weekend came during, dun dun dahhhh! Sunday night dinner. If you didn't notice, I like cooking, baking, etc etc. Going back to my roots from summers at Kimberly's Ice Cream Factory, I decided to make Heather a birthday cake... made of ice cream. I've only done this in the pink walls of comfort at the shop, and was nervous about the task.

Trying to replicate the way we did things at work, I spent Sunday working on the cake. Considering the fact that I didn't have top-notch equipment or products, I tried my best anyway. The goal was to make a vanilla and chocolate layered cake, with the classic cookie crumb center, decorated in a cute yet classy way for Miss Heather. This is the result.

Happy Birthday Heather!

mmmmm chocolate drizzleeeeeee
