Today is Day 95 of Isolation and John’s Birthday!!
We celebrated at home – duh! It is the first time in YEARS thanks to the pandemic.
John requested bison burgers, baked beans, and chocolate cupcakes for his birthday dinner.
The ground bison was available at the local health food store. It made great patties and were cooked on the BBQ. Served lettuce wrapped.
I used the instant pot to make the beans this time. They tasted a little different but that could be the recipe wasn’t the usual one. I tried one I found online for the instant pot.
These are gluten free cupcakes I made and boy, are they yummy! I made buttercream frosting to put in and on them. Sorry, no pic of the finished product. Just trust me when I say I’m glad it only made 6!
It was a great day to turn 64!
Decluttering the Stuff 
Happy (belated) Birthday, John! Here’s to a great year of less clutter and more adventure (hopefully outside the house soon!)

Did you make the frosting from scratch? I have always found it hard to get the perfect balance of ingredients for frosting.

I did. I just use the recipe by Wilton for buttercream and it is perfect to us. I think the trick is adding the vanilla and we use Half and Half for the milk. Some recipes don’t add vanilla.
