The weekend after our nice little get-away to Vietnam, we had a little birthday party for Mike with some of our friends. Mike's requests are pretty much the same every year: pizza, friends & games. He usually doesn't care too much about what the dessert is, but this year he did request German chocolate cake, which actually has nothing to do with Germany, but rather, an Englishman who's last name was "German" (in case you were wondering).

So celebrate we did with homemade pizzas with Gaby's famous dough, rootbeer floats, homemade hummus & pita bread, veggies & dip, Texas caviar and salsa, and a homemade cake. It was delightful. :) We whipped out my new game that I got from Mike for Xmas called, Dixit, which was a really entertaining game as well.

The morning first started out with some great buttermilk blueberry pancakes and just got better after that. :)
