Happy Birthday Micha!

He turned 25 on March 7th (ya, we're about a year and 2 months apart) and, quoting him, he's way over the hill. So over the hill, in fact, that he wants to join the legendary ranks of Walt Disney in a cryogenically frozen state. Hehe.

We went back to his hometown, Mirow, for the weekend and celebrated with tons of cake and walks in the countryside. And whenever Michi wanted to do something, anything, during his birthday weekend he would state his intentions, wait a nanosecond for me to concur with his plan and add, with puppydog eyes, his head slightly tilted to the side, with a bit of childlike guilt/tantrum in his voice: "I wiiish...!!" It was really cute, actually. Oh yea, what did I get him? A waterproof ipod speaker case, a Fossil watch (he loves watches, and his last watch broke...I originally got him a watch similar to but nicer than this one, but we exchanged it for this one, (my boyfriend is an old soul, as his mother said to me the other night), and tickets to see Radiohead in Berlin in July.


At a German restaurant. Fish, meat, potatoes, cream sauce and schmalz. (Fish was good...Schmalz is deer fat that they smear on bread like we do with butter before the main meal. I had to control my gag reflex.)




3 homemade cakes! The typical poppyseed cake, a hazelnut-cherry-with-cream-on-top cake and another crazy good cake with god knows what lovely ingredients inside!


I made nutella cupcakes and this heart-shaped nutella cake, since my boyfriend is a chocoholic.. (I love nutella myself but can't say I'm big fan of chocolate in general. I really love white chocolate, but we all know that's not even considered real chocolate in the first place.)




Michi makes a wiiiish. :)
