My husband makes me pavlova. He’s really low in confidence in the kitchen and it’s about the only thing he does, but it’s perfect. That and I generally manage to persuade the family they have to play games with me.

I celebrate my birthday twice (with actual celebrations, that is): once with my parents on the day (usually) where it’s very laid back and I get my favorite meal in the world. The second, a week later with a ton of my friends in the wilds of PA, camping. 🙂
