turning twenty-six started out like any other day.
alarm went off at 6:30 (ok so that’s later than normal, didn’t exercise that day) i rolled out of bed to go feed the meowing tobi. when i turned on the light in the laundry/mudroom/back hallway i saw that my roomie used her (unknown!) skills to leave me a little message on the pantry chalkboard.
uh…too sweet and too cute!
i made my coffee.
spent time with Jesus.
got dressed and then the phone started pinging away with lovely texts from friends and family.
work was work – mixed in with a little birthday celebration.
my office will bring in the birthday person’s choice treat. i chose greek yogurt, fruit, granola, (and some cinnamon rolls and cheese danish) since we had red velvet cake on monday.
i actually went out of the office for a few minutes towards the end of the day and came back in to my friend Beverly jumping out from behind my desk with balloons flowers and a present. seriously, my friends are too awesome. we hung out until the end of the work day and then headed on to eat at the tattooed moose. y’all….delicious. duck-fat fries with garlic aioli….swoon; and their burger, oh my gosh don’t even get me started on that burger. IT WAS SO GOOD!
what you’re hearing is that i basically threw my healthy eating out of the window for the day!
while we were finishing up our food and chatting i was taken back with ANOTHER suprise.
my roomie had ordered me a cake from my absolute favorite coffee house/bake shop/craft beer local joint: bakehouse. this cake.
this cake.
i.
just.
can’t.
even.
it was so good…and HUGE. one small sliver was ginormous due to it being like 5 layers.
5 layers of deliciousness. chocolate, caramel, more chocolate and a ring of salt around the top.
yes. cake heaven.(i may or may not have had a fork-full each morning since tuesday night #IDon’tEvenFeelGuilty)
after dinner we all gave big ol’ hugs and drove our separate ways.
at home i vegged out to project runway and got into bed early…yes that is a wonderful way to end the birthday DAY on a tuesday 😉

sooo obviously there is a “lack of pictures”
ha.
that is how my life rolls – live with it instead of always snapping a picture!
