Yesterday was Dave's birthday. Andrew was in charge of the card making and I was in charge of the cake baking and Isaac was in charge of the merry making. Isaac has this way of bouncing up and down when he is excited. It looks like he is jumping except that his feet don't leave the floor. He is really just doing some quick deep knee bends. He does this everyday when Dave gets home from work...and often Dave joins in.
All in all, it was a nice birthday.
Dave does not like icing at all. So, the best kind of birthday cake for Dave is bundt cakes with no icing, just chocolate drizzle. This is a Chocolate Zucchini Orange cake and it was pretty incredible.

I think that is the yummiest sounding cake you have ever made! YUMmmy.
No kidding. I am definitely coming to Dave's birthday party next year.
I don't like icing either and since I make my own "birthday cake" it's not a problem on my birthday. Eric usually wants something non-cake and I've managed to pull off my favorite yogurt cake for Margaret's birthday every year. But now that she's old enough to care she wants chocolate birthday cake with chocolate frosting. I wonder if she'd go for a zucchini cake with chocolate drizzle . . .
seriously, Robyn, I don't know how you don't weigh 1000 pounds...I would be eating that cake all day.
