July Cakes

In our family July is full of birthdays and Buddy always makes us feel so happy to celebrate because he loves fun!
This year we gave him the chance to choose the cakes because we were not in a position to bake any. We were in the midst of a huge heat wave and the AC was not working well. Nor was there much time since hubby was discharged from the hospital on the 8th and my BD was the following day. My cake was rich but the best part was that hubby was there when my cake was presented to me in our bedroom.



Then for Buddy's big BD his sisters took him to a fancy bakery to select his.
He picked a super chocolate one that was dark and delicious!
Once the het wave ended we went back to baking our own and our favourite rhubarb slices was one of them.
