Feliz cumpleanoz

On Cinco de Mayo we celebrated Aunt Susan's birthday at our house. We had a summery bean bowl and homemade bread for dinner followed by a white cake with raspberry filling and bittersweet chocolate frosting (made by me).  Emma watched me decorate the cake and chose the sea blue color for the writing. She was very eager to take a bite!  On Aunt Susan's birthday Emma left her a telephone Spanish birthday greeting. Aunt Susan was very impressed. Emma had spent about a week practicing the happy birthday phrase and got it just right.
