A Birthday in November

Since the second or third week of bible study, I have taken on the role, and joy, of baking some form of dessert. It is a great way to fulfill the desire of measuring, mixing, and tasting, without having to eat it all yourself. Though I have to admit, thinking up new recipes is starting to pose a problem. So, sidenote, if anyone has a good recipe that is semi-simple, let me know. Anyway, this week Mari and I made oatmeal chocolate chip cake. Yummmmm. I had to come late, so I sent the cake with Mari and Rebekka. After arriving and eating "tea" with the group, Ros (one of the bible study leaders) came out with the cake. Everyone started singing happy birthday, and after me commenting on how I didn't know it was someone's birthday this week, I cluelessly began singing along. It took me way too long to realize that the cake was for me, and it was my "birthday." Ros decided that since I won't be here in June, my 21st would have to be celebrated in November. This is a long way of saying that I have been blessed. By a Godly woman that cares for me. With friends that look on laughing as I sing along to my own birthday song. With cozy fires, light "banter," and honest heart-to-hearts. I love bible study :)

On a lighter note though, I'm desperate for recipes!
