Dad’s Birthday Dinner

Our dad celebrated his birthday today. Hubby baked a cake for his dad. It was a Milo (Malaysian chocolate drink) almond butter cake. It was extremely delicious. This is the first time that hubby has ever baked since I knew him. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that he would bake more stuff instead of playing computer games!

We went to a pancake restaurant in Schoorl for dinner. The food was tasty and very filling. Dessert was also delicious.

 Dinner at the pancake restaurant in Schoorl.
 Dessert of three ice-cream scoops in a uniquely shaped wavy plate.
 Cake which hubby baked.
 Whipped cream to complement the Milo almond butter cake.
 Onion soup topped with bread.
 Hearty pancake of ham and tomatoes.
Mushroom starter dish which I ate as my main meal. 

We take this opportunity to wish our dad a very happy 68th birthday with lots of fun and wishes which come true! At least we got the age right here on this blog…last year we thought it was 68, and this year we thought it was 67. Two times in a row. Third time will be lucky and we will hit bull’s eye. So dad, next year, we will definitely be getting it right! From your ever affectionate son and daughter-in-law.

  2. We did enjoy your dinner :) If I see the ice-cream dessert plate in the shops, I would definitely buy it. It makes the eating experience a whole more exquisite despite the simplicity of the ice-cream - just three scoops.
