birthday 29

My birthday was this past week.  We celebrated as a family over the previous weekend because my actual birthday, Feb. 5th, was a very busy workday for Erik.  
We had a lovely dinner of Kale Potato soup (my favorite!), salad and sourdough bread.  


 Erik made an incredible cake for me - Cardamom Cake with Whole Pears.  It was out of this world!




Sunday morning I experimented with a porridge recipe I had been itching to try.  It was mixture of quinoa, buckwheat groats and amaranth grain - soaked and cooked in raw milk and served with blueberries, bananas and a drizzle of maple syrup.  It was very filling and hearty with a complex mix of flavors.
