Birthday season is upon us here in the MiKenzie household. First up was my birthday on March 20. I turned 32.
I made my own cake for two reasons: 1) Avril is very, very pregnant, and 2) I like to make Mum's black midnight cake. Alex and Kenny, of course, had to help me. I didn't let the cream filling cool for long enough, so the finished cake didn't look as pretty as it could have, but it sure tasted good.
Then, on the 24th, it was Lex's 2nd birthday.
He got cars.
Avril's birthday is on April 9, and we'll have a baby born sometime between now and then.

man your baby's getting old. that cake looks yummy, I never actually make the cream filling because I always screw the whole cake up
It's nice to see the black midnight cake tradition carry on - complete with cream filling. Alex looks so cute standing in front of his cake.
Did you have to stick toothpicks between the layers to keep them from sliding apart? Memories...
I wanna know what kind of candies you put on there. They look scrumptious!
Smarties, think plain M & M's with milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate. Not available in the USA.
