One Year Ago…

November 24th, 2009

Two days late is better then never, right?

Then.

Now.

We’ve celebrate you and love you baby (even when you wake us in the middle of the night – but that’s a story for another time).

This used to be one of Jason’s shirts, although I think it looked a little different when he wore it.  Can you see the button in the flower?

Misty is prolific, that lovely lady.  Generous, kind, talented, and loving. Lucky, lucky us.  Thank you so much.

I made this bittersweet chocolate and pear cake.  Although I have already eaten about a quarter of the cake itself, I wouldn’t say it has really changed my mind about chocolate and fruit (which is to say I don’t love it).  But it is very good.  The cake isn’t too sweet and the pear and chocolate are lovely together.  That said, I still prefer my chocolate unadulterated. I think it would be a great brunch dish but it certainly can be eaten for breakfast, snack, lunch, or dessert.  At least, I’ve eaten it that way.

Now, I think I’ll go have a serving of fruit – in cake form of course.
