Happy Birthday Dan, Lunch & Cake Talk

 Today is Dan's birthday!  Happy birthday to my hunny!  We had lunch at Erie Restaurant, which is just a few minutes from our house. It is a cozy, casual place and the food is always very good. Today Dan had a bison burger and I had a rueben sandwich. My friend Julie works there on Saturdays, so it was very nice catching up with her.  
Later this afternoon Dan enjoyed a piece of the German chocolate that I made for his birthday. German chocolate cake is his favorite cake. I also made a coconut cake, mainly for myself!
After all, who doesn't like a nice, home made cake?

The coconut cake I made is a healthier, lower calorie/fat version, then the typical coconut cake.  If you are doing Weight Watchers, it is 4 PP per slice. It is so delicious!!! It does NOT taste low calorie/lowfat.
Lightened Up Coconut Cake!
You can find the recipe at Dashing Dish. Katie has the best recipes!! Every recipe I have tried so far, I absolutely LOVE!

Happy weekend everyone!
