Happy Birthday to Us!

Fabulous Fruit

Fancy Fruit Cake

It’s our birthday today and since our age doesn’t end with a big ‘0″, we see no need to make a big fuss…  We’d rather plan a dinner out with our families at a fabulous restaurant (hint to our husbands) where we can eat and drink what we want (and not count calories!)  And that includes dessert.  The hardest part will be deciding between something fruity,

You Can Make Your Own!

These sweet treats are as delicious as they appear, given their natural ingredients…

Pretty Packaging

Thank goodness the company had the foresight to open a store in Soho so we don’t have to travel too far to satisfy our urge… then again, we can order online from their website and save ourselves the wait!
