This "Aries" woman can't wait to celebrate. I'm not all about the party, as much as I am totally all about the Food & Beverages! Some of the best birthdays have been spent at a hole-in-the-wall BBQ spot while shooting on-location in Atlanta, or drinking tea at the old office in London, watching the Springtime rain outside.  

Last year, I tried to avoid the awkward office party- all the resistant participants singing- I feel so badly for everybody! But I love them because they are showing up to celebrate & really, let's be honest, for the same reason I am: Free CAKE! (In fact, if someone would've told me about how many kid birthday parties I'd attend as a parent, I may have had children earlier!) I do love me some great cake. Who doesn't?

With April on the horizon, I can't wait to see what kind of eats I'll celebrate with! How can we top the "Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf" cake? My co-workers know what I like! And with these early hours I must have my drink. Best made by my hubs Fireman Matt of course. With lots of love & just how I like it. He's the sweetest gift I'll ever get for sure.

Birthday celebration ideas are welcome here. Share recipes with me on Pinterest if we haven't chatted yet. I'm always connected & happy to see you online @KristinCruz XOXO
