One year up in age, and hopefully one level up in wisdom as well!
But nope, no hello kitty cake this year. Instead, I decided to use what little time I have to make a carrot and spinach cake for my co-birthday star, my dearest Spencer boy!
A wholesome heart-shaped carrot and spinach cake
He turned 9 this year, but it’s the first time that we are celebrating his birthday with a cake and a song, and hey he was really, really happy to be the star of the day. We celebrated his birthday with immense love and a thankful heart. And good health is all that we want for him. Hopefully, his arthritis remains under control and he could enjoy the rooftop for a couple more years. Keeping our fingers crossed for him.
My smart boy knows that the cake is specially baked for him
His cake tasted a little bland to the human taste buds, but he truly enjoyed it nevertheless. Some carrots and spinach would definitely do his digestive system some good. I was so worried that he would sniff the cake and walk away uninterestedly. Thankfully, he gave his cake a chance, and really loved his cake! And knowing that he enjoyed his cake means the world to me.
My happy boy!
As for me, it was a quiet and simple birthday celebration with Mister and my family. A hearty lunch at Charly T’s with compliments from Citibank, an afternoon movie ‘Frozen’, a home-cooked meal with my favourite childhood vegetable dish, a mango yogurt cake sponsored by Mister and a short viber chat with my sister in Japan.

Happy birthday to ME!
Life was definitely good on my birthday! Thanks to everyone for your birthday wishes to Spencer and myself!
Oh and Miss Bakerholic on Cycliclapse turned one. So it’s one up for this blog too!
