Happy Birthday To My Darling

Okay, so I know it doesn't look that great.  I don't have any skill when it comes to decorating cakes. Brian's mom and sister are both quite talented in that area, and his cousin Ellie, who made our wedding cake, has a cake decorating business.  Poor Brian.  I just want to get the icing on the cake and call it a day.

To be fair, it is a banana cake with banana frosting, and the frosting is wetter than most due to the bananas, making it very hard to do what you want it to.  At the end of the day, it's all about taste anyway, and believe me when I say, this is a good cake.  A family favorite of ours, and especially my dad's.  When I was dating Brian, I asked him if he would like this cake for his birthday, and he said he would, and once he had it, it was history.  This is his birthday cake from now on, replacing his former favorite, carrot cake.

Brian is on his way home from work (from his second job) as I write, and I am looking forward to finally celebrating with him.

~Happy Birthday to my darling, whom I love more than life.  I hope today and everyday you know how much you are loved.  My life is better because I have you by my side.~
