Notes: Happy Birthday Jeff and Kendra!!! It is both of their birthdays, and I made them a lemon cake with chocolate frosting, which is my brother’s birthday cake since he was a kid. I drove it down to LA for them and they loved it! The frosting was just perfect for the cake, a tad grainy I think from not stirring enough, but all in all perfect, and I know made my brother happy! And, it travels super well! Just keep out of the sun!
