Individual Birthday Cake



HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE MAN!!

Thank you for allowing me to shout because Jackson James turns 3 today!  Last night we kicked off the celebration with my mom and sister (Gigi and Auntie Hannah) at this wonderful restaurant and came home to share this wonderfully tiny cake!  You bake it in an empty can!  Exclamation!!

When I came across the idea/recipe on this superb blog, I couldn't wait to make it.  And that's the genius in it... you don't have to wait.  It takes 5 minutes to prep, less than 30 to bake, you're certain to have all the ingredients in your pantry and can you say, PERFECT little portion??  I'm telling you, this will change my life.  Any occasion will become a Mini Cake Night occasion.

For reals people, go to The Baker Chick for this idea and countless others.  New obsession.

  7. Get the "We Peel 'Em Shrimp" for an appetizer, amazing. I love there oysters too if you're into that. The lobster roll is pretty incredible, and I'm a big fan of the salad with egg and avocado - can't remember what it's called. Their cocktails are great too! Have fun!
