Birthday Recap!

I promised a recap of my birthday and here it is!

My day was wonderful thanks some very lovely people. When I awoke at 4:40am (I know I'm crazy), I made my way to the gym for my first workout as a 23 year old! I did the following INTENSE treadmill workout that had me sweatin'!

Those 14 and 15 incline intervals were no joke! 

After getting all sweaty, I drove home and opened the door to see this:

My lovely sister and mother did this for me while I was sleeping!

My work day passed relatively quickly and towards the end of the day, I was called in to my boss' office and got quite a surprise! How gorgeous is that handwriting?? I also got a card signed by the whole office and  I was so appreciative! Oh, and the cake was chocolate inside and was absolutely delicious in case you were wondering :)

Bean Curdy goodness :)

I got home and hung around on the couch with my sister and RJ before it was time for dinner! The restaurant was amazing and I absolutely loved my meal. I ordered this:


HUNAN BEAN CURD

organic tofu / sesame seeds / red peppers / broccoli /
ginger sauce / organic brown rice

I substituted chicken for the tofu because I was worried I wouldn't like the tofu, but I am going to try it next time! The ginger sauce has just the right amount of spice that added such a great flavor and the rice was cooked perfectly.

After a wonderful meal, we all headed home for presents and cake (can you tell I was excited?)

You guys, this cake turned out perfectly. Just the right amount of peanut butter and dark chocolate. I ate my  two slices one small piece with Butterfinger ice cream and I could not get enough! I definitely recommend this cake for any birthday or event you have coming up. Or just because you want some yummy cake :)

Life changing cake..

Overall, my birthday was pretty spectacular. Low key and relaxed, just the way I like them.

What's your favorite birthday memory?
