8th February was Mika’s birthday! And once again she gets her annual home baked birthday cake. This year it was banana & peanut cake with cinnamon cream cheese icing which she didn’t really fancy. I shall revert back to the carrot & peanut butter cake with cottage cheese icing again next year!
Couldn’t celebrate Mika’s birthday on the day itself because of work schedule so we did a belated one with close family & brought her to Kallang Park for a nice stroll. Mika was treated with steamed broccoli mixed with stewed pork for dinner & birthday cake for dessert! She was one happy pooch that night…
I simply love Mika’s face when we have the birthday cake in front of her as if she knows it’s her special day & she can eat it! It’s different when we have her with human birthday celebrations! Well, another year has passed and she’s 4 human years now. No longer a puppy but still a puppy in my eyes!
Love u my little Mika!
XOXO

P.S. this is the dog cake recipe which Mika didn’t like:
Banana Peanut Dog Birthday Party Cake
2/3 cup ripe mashed bananas
1/2 cup softened safflower margarine
3 large eggs
3/4 cup Water
2 cups unbleached white flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
In mixing bowl, beat together mashed banana and butter until creamy. Add eggs and water. Beat well. Stir in dry ingredients. Beat until smooth. Add nuts. Spoon batter evenly into oiled and floured bundt pan. Bake for about 35 minutes. Cool on wire rack 5 minutes, remove from pan, replace on rack and cool.
Happy birthday Mika! the photo where Mika looks out of the window is so nice and special. it never fails to say dog is our best companion when all else failed, so glad you have found your heart felt companion. i wanted to have a big dog too like golden retriever (i’m a responsible pet owner! 🙂 but my parents said big dogs are not allowed in HDB and wait till my new flat is ready..which it’s ready but still is HDB hahaha. i guess when my little girl has grown up bigger, it would be a good time to invite new guest to our home 🙂
looking forward to the debut of 再见单人床. the title itself spells fun drama 🙂
