January is over. Fini. Done. Gone. Never to be heard from again in 2010. So that means February is here in all its cruel ferocity.
We left January with a birthday celebration for Jason. I made a chocolate peanut butter concoction which was absolutly amazing. I used a chocolate cake mix from a box (how mundane, but you can still have fun with mixes), but I made the frosting myself from a recipe I found over at Smitten Kitchen. It was delicious! Cream cheese frostings have always put me off, simply because I was unfortunate enough to be force fed cream cheese frostings on costco cakes from age 9 through 16. I like being the one to make birthday cakes because I get mad props from my friends, but it's all trickery. You can't go wrong with sugar. Most people love it, dream about it, crave it. Making any dessert, I think, is an automatic win.
