The wee one woke up today to small decorations and yummy breakfast cakes.
We all sang him happy birthday and he blew out the candles with the BIGGEST smile on his face.
This evening will bring a few gifts….. a homemade cake and homemade pizzas. This boy has a love for pizza!
While he's napping and the pizza dough is rising….. I thought I would share a few photos with you and also the recipe for our "breakfast cakes" which turned out oh so yummy.
enjoy……..
the "pizzas" as the wee on calls them….

Awh! Thank you for sharing. I don’t think you can call him the wee one any more. He is growing up to be such a handsome little boy. He looks very much like his Mommy.

I just baked your muffins but used dried cranberries instead of blueberries. They are awesome! I needed a use for all the powdered cardamom I have. Now I need to use my whole cardamom pods for something…

cardamom pods are awesome in rice!! (cook them with the rice) especially if you are serving the rice with a curry based sauce….. try 2-3 pods per cup of rice 🙂
