Happy Birthday to Josh...


Today is Josh's 28 birthday. I made this fabulous cake, which is a tradition that I am going to continue. Slaving in the Kitchen for 3-4 hours baking, cutting, frosting...it is really quite exhilarating. We are going to my mom's tonight and she is making him Rouladen which is described by Josh as Pickles wrapped with a roast. It is a favorite German dish of ours. He got a bag of clothes that he already opened on Friday so the cake is going to be the highlight of the party for sure. He keeps trying to cut into it...I feel like Marie Baron keeping him away from it. I must say...my mouth waters thinking about how good it is going to be. It has a chocolate creamy filling with chocolate shavings on the top, served with raspberry sauce and ice cream. Happy Birthday Babe!!!

Woweee girl! You are a regular Martha Stewart! Funny...I've never heard of that German dish. Your family must definitely be Northern Germany cuisine makers cause that is an entirely different ball game than we ever experienced.

Anyhow, the cake is LOVELY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!

(I seriously can't believe how young you guys are!)
