Faruq celebrated his birthday last Thursday but we didn't have his party until this past weekend. It's a tradition in our house that the person having the birthday gets to pick their favorite meal. So of course, Faruq picked Filet Mignon.
We feasted on Filet, roasted potatoes & carrots, green bean and beets.
It was so yummy !!
Then we enjoyed a deliciously sweet chocolate cake.
Faruq and the kids.
Of course, Sophie giving Daddy a taste !
Look who is digging in.
(We paid for this with a very late bedtime last night.)
Someone had a little too much sweetness !
The cake was a gluten free chocolate cake mix with an Oreo cookie cream cheese filling.
It was covered in chocolate buttercream and decorated with Skor bites.
I also made a test batch of a new Halloween treat that I had found on Pinterest. It was a huge success so I will share the recipe in another blog post.
We also managed to get a few things checked off of our never ending "To Do" list this weekend so it was also very productive.
