Time to break out those Funfetti Cookie Dough Balls.
In honor of my birthday (I’m excited and not-so-excited at the same time), today’s post spotlights cake, funfetti, and all things sprinkle!
Can you look at this photo and not feel happy? Give me birthday-cake pizza over regular pizza any day. It’s much more fun. And much more pretty-ful (which should be a word, by the way).
The most adorable little things ever. Almost too cute to eat. Almost.
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ve probably seen this photo a million times, because it’s one of the most-popular recipes on my site!
Chocolate Cake-Batter Milkshake
Even better than the original… because chocolate is always better!
I made these for a bunch of kindergarteners, and they ate every last crumb sprinkle.
Also known as “fairy dust” ice cream or “magic fairytale” ice cream.
Question of the Day:
Do people think you look younger (or older) than you are?
People always mistake me for being younger. And I know some people find it offensive or annoying when others mistake them for being much younger than they are. But I really don’t mind. (Except for one time when a guy thought I was twelve. That made me mad.) I am secretly hoping it means I can look like Michelle Pfeiffer when I’m 53. (Seriously, what is her secret?)
My birthday dessert is going to be Chocolate Mousse Pie. And yes, I will be posting the recipe this week.















oh, how i understand you!
i’m going on 19 now, and people often think i’m about 17..
the funny thing is, when i was about 11 i was always thought to be older, like, 14 or so!
so it seems as if it just turned ’round..but as you said, one day looking younger is gonna be a very good thing for a lady! 😉
best wishes for your birthday,
enjoy it!
greetz,

Happy almost birthday! I notice whipped cream in a lot of your pictures, but I’ve never had good luck with soyatoo or rice whip. Have you ever tried mimicreme? I’ve heard good things about it!
I’ve not tried it! And ugh, don’t get me started on Soyatoo! It always stops up and refuses to come out. I’ve stopped buying it. I usually just make my own now; either my vegan whipped cream recipe or my coconut cool whip one. Neither is swirly like Soyatoo, but at least they don’t stop up and waste $5!
I’m 23 and people always think I’m like 18, someone even told me I looked 16! It used to bother me a lot, but I guess its a good thing, and I’m finally getting used to it, I actually have fun looking at people’s faces when I tell someone my age ha ha. Happy birthdaaaaaay! 🙂
Wow, I can’t believe you’ll be 25! Based on looks alone, I would give you around 17 years. 😉
No one ever knows how old I am. Whenever I go to restaurants I’m always asked if I’m old enough to drink. Sometimes I’m just offered the wine and I go, “um, I’m underage.” It is totally okay to make your own birthday dessert (referring to your Tweet yesterday). I’m making mine this year. Anyway, have a happy birthday! 🙂
After reading your blog for a little while, I figured you were about 21 or 22, since you recently got out of school (right?).
People always think I am 24, when I am really 31! I used to NOT appreciate it until a few years ago… now I am flattered! I know that I will probably always look younger than I am, which is a gift! Beats the alternative! 🙂
I changed majors, switched schools, and took a semester off… so I’m a little late in graduating ;).
Happy (almost) birthday 🙂
People generally tend to think I’m younger than I actually am, possibly because I’m not that tall? Don’t really know why! It only annoys me when I’m in America and people card me to drink…oh well. I’m sure soon I’ll be happy to look younger (hopefully)
I hope you post a picture of yourself from this Tuesday, so that we can say, “That is what she looked like on the day she turned 25.”
people used to always think i was older than i was by 4 or 5 years but it’s toned down now, only 2 or 3 years lol
omg funfetti was my favorite thing in the world during college. haha pre-healthy. I’ll have to give some of these recipes a try! And everyone ALWAYS thinks that I’m younger than I actually am, so like you, I hope this pays off when I’m older.
