Happy birthday
It was my 31st birthday on Tuesday and Chris and I celebrated it last Saturday night with a simple meal of rainbow trout with thyme and roasted lemons, salad and crispy potatoes. And good wine, of course.
The next day, we celebrated again with the kids and Chris’s dad, with Jamie Oliver’s carrot cake with lime marscapone icing. The recipe is from this book and can be found here. I’ve had the book a while, possibly since my last birthday, and this is the first thing I’ve cooked from it. If this cake is anything to go by, I should cook more from it soon. Very soon.
Getting older isn’t so bad when you have good people and good food to get you through.
