I Like Cake (and Ice Cream)

Michael's birthday was on Tuesday. He is now caught up to me in age, 24! He received a multitude of presents, including a paper airplane kit, stickers, videogames, DVDs and a mattress topper. Thanks to Mike and Carole, Brandon, Michael, and Liz and Paul!

In my opinion, the best part is the cake. I took Michael to Baskin-Robins and forced him to pick out a cake. He picked a dark red one and we took it home. He wasn't really in the mood for ice cream, but once I cut it and gave him a taste, he wanted a piece for himself. Presenting the blueberry cheesecake ice cream cake:

It was topped with cheesecake bits, two strawberries, and a dark chocolate cone, just what Michael likes. We were pleasantly surprised to find the "frosting" was actually blueberry syrup and the "cake" was blueberry cheesecake, one of Michael's go-to flavors at Baskin-Robins.

The cake was delicious, but only lasted two days. The cakes are rather small here. It's too bad our birthdays are over, that is the only excuse I have for ice cream cake :(
