Shiitake Mushroom Farm
This was one of my birthday presents this year. We already have 4 mushrooms !
Sangria
We decided to have a small Sangria party for my birthday this year. I modified a recipe I found online which turned out really well so I’ve decided to post it.
1 bottle of dry red wine
1 tbsp sugar
juice of 1 large orange
1 large orange, sliced thin crosswise
2 medium peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into chunks
1 cup (8 fl. oz) club soda
1. Combine all the ingredients except for the club soda in a large serving pitcher. Mix well. Refrigerate overnight.
2. Immediately before serving, mix in the club soda. Ladle into cups with ice cubes and enjoy !
I added strawberries and raspberries to a few of the batches, which I liked even better, so feel free to try that as well !
Birthday Cake
Geoffrey made me a vegan triathlon chocolate cake for my birthday this year. Absolutely blew me away.
