Happy Happy Birthday!

Alex is 18. ALEX is 18. Alex IS 18. If I say it enough times I might start to believe it.

What is it with Alex and bundt cakes? I asked him a day or two ago what kind of cake he wanted...and after a little research he came up with this Lemon-Cheese Cake. The main cake is made with a yellow cake mix base (slight alterations), then I made a lemon and cream cheese filling to go in it and a lemon glaze on top. It turned out fairly yummy (definitely not as rich as last year's Tunnel O' Fudge). I made it yesterday so that it could chill in the refrigerator over night.

It's always nice to add to my repertoire of bundt cake recipes. Thank you, Alex.

So, the filling is like cheesecake? Interesting. I like a good bundt cake. Of course you need the perfect pan for the perfect cake. How many are you up to? :)

Don't you mean 'Boont' cake? (MBFG Wedding fame)

Happy Birthday Alex!

Filling? Way to take it to 11...

Happy birthday to Alex. 18 couldn't happen to a nicer kid.

I think we have at least three kids the same age. I have a son who will be 18 this year, a daughter who will be 26 and a son who will be 21 in a couple of weeks. Did we plan that? Oh and Happy Birthday Alex!
