Swimming in Muffins
As if I needed even more sweet, bready, browned lumps of dough, tonight I baked up a batch of apple coffee cake muffins. I actually do need them, though–to take with me to a party tomorrow.
Red Velvet Cake with Buttercream and Fondant
The real main event of my birthday party meal was, of course, the cake!
Pasta and Chicken with Lemon Sauce
For the main dish of my birthday party dinner, I put together a simple pasta dish with pieces of chicken and a light lemon sauce.
Stracciatella Soup
In keeping with the Italian theme of my party, I started off dinner with a nice pot of stracciatella soup.
Tomato-and-Basil-Topped Bruschetta
Another appetizer I had at my birthday party this year was a simple bruschetta with tomatoes and fresh basil.
Sun-Dried Tomato Dip
One of the snack foods/appetizers I put together for my birthday party just over a week ago was a dip made with sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese.
