We started off the day at 6am, so that Daddy could be part of the celebrating. David is 7 today, and we're so thankful for him. To help him not get too focussed on himself, the other children were each given an UNbirthday present. Even Jenny, who is 2 1/2 got into the action helping her big sister open some girlie Mega Blocks. (similar to Lego) Inbetween school subjects, we had a cake and ice cream eating fest, which you can only do in homeschooling!
He asked for a Ninja cake, with a tornado on top. There were Ninja figures, and there was a mess of frosting, but it ended up looking more like a volcano than a tornado. Hey-ho, he was happy!
We baked this!
You all need to try this cake. So easy, so delicious! And the frosting, well, that was the kid's favourite part.
Some powdered sugar (about 180 g), some margarine/coconut oil (about 125 g), 1 tsp. Vanilla, HAND MIX, until you think your arm will fall off, then presto--- smooth, yummy, melt in your mouth sweetness. I give all credit to this lovely lady at Azelia's kitchen.
Chocolate Icing recipe.
Forgive my lack of postings recently-- we have had a tough start to the year, with several illnesses. I have realized my limitations, and am trying to better balanced with this new self-knowledge. Here's to a bright 2015, and many more vegan gluten free CAKES!
