Happy 28th birthday to me! \u00a0Thank you all for the birthday wishes! \u00a0Casey took the day off today and let me sleep in which was awesome! \u00a0I think this is the latest I’ve slept in since Brady was born – 10:20! \u00a0The rest of the day was pretty laid back. \u00a0While Brady was sleeping I got to work on making my birthday cake. \u00a0I decided a few weeks ago for Brady’s birthday I wanted to make her a Cookie Monster cake and since I’ve never tried anything like this before, I figured my birthday would be a good dry run. \u00a0If it didn’t turn out, no big deal because I usually don’t even have a birthday cake let alone need to take pics of it. \u00a0I made up the icing yesterday and refrigerated it. \u00a0While things didn’t go exactly as planned I think I learned a lot (including how to use the piping bag and tip – thanks You Tube) and should be able to make Brady’s cake that much better. \u00a0It ended up taking Brady’s entire nap to get it all done but I got it done!<\/p>\n
For dinner, I wanted to try somewhere new but also somewhere Brady-friendly. \u00a0Meaning we would be eating early, hopefully outside, and something in a price range where we’d be able to set the pace for our meal (not steak or something with several courses). \u00a0I was torn between Tex-Mex and pizza but when we asked Brady if she wanted pizza she said, “Ssss” \u00a0(“Yes”). \u00a0We went to Little Deli and Pizzeria. \u00a0It got a lot of great reviews and thanks to Yelp we knew it was BYOB and were prepared. \u00a0It ended up being ok, there was just something off about the sauce. \u00a0I don’t think we’ll go back, but I’m glad we tried it. \u00a0Once we got home, I found the thread I had seen a year ago about the best pizza places in Austin and this time I made sure to bookmark them on Yelp for next time. \u00a0It’s always so tempting to go with places you know you like, that are consistent but there are so many restaurants in Austin it’s just a shame not to try new ones.<\/p>\n
