So today is my birthday :)
The past semester, I've been a part of the birthday committee on campus. It's pretty simple - a few of us make a birthday card for people to sign and cook up some sort of nice treat whenever it's someone's birthday. Usually David and I end up doing the baking, and since he's vegan (and there are ~4 other vegan students), we make a vegan cake. For some reason this term puts people at unease ("A cake without eggs or butter!?") but I have to say we've made some pretty delicious cakes anyway. We always joke that the birthday committee is for people who like to cook but don't want to spend their own money...which is true in my case :P
Last night, we celebrated all the June birthdays at once because there are seven of us June babies (out of 40 students). David and I baked three kinds of cake - chocolate pistachio, cinnamon fruit, and chocolate pudding cake. Fun stuff - we even made the pudding ourselves! It was our last birthday bash and I'm glad I've had the chance to make everyone's birthday a little sweeter.
And I've been slacking on the prayer part:
Request - I'm headed home a week from today and I have so much to do in between now and then...
Praise - I'm so thankful for 21 awesome, blessed years of life.
