How to kick the birthday blues in the bum...



Ah ha...wouldn't you like to know...especially if you're about to turn........ah who cares, life is for living.

But - if you feel like creating extra extra cheer, don't wait around for someone to make you an old fashioned cake - make one yourself....a serious cake, not too fancy on the outside, but just delicious on the inside. Then put candles in it and sing happy birthday to yourself - jokes.

The cake I made myself was a Hot Milk Sponge, with lots of orange and lemon zest. The Boiled Butter Cream Icing - also known as Italian Meringue Icing is wonderfully messy to make and just the lightest puffiest icing you can imagine -totally worth it, after all it's your ......birthday!
