It still doesn't seem like a good idea to eat in restaurants here, so we celebrated my birthday as well as
cattitude's at home. We celebrated Cattitude's birthday on the actual day, but
adrian_turtle was waiting a cautious three days after seeing her other partner.
So I had two small at-home birthday dinners this year. My actual birthday dinner was bay scallops, cooked very simply, because we saw them on sale at the farmers market that afternoon. Two days later, he cooked duck breasts for the three of us, at Adrian's place; before we saw the scallops, I was going to have duck for a birthday dinner.
This also got me two birthday cakes: lemon cheesecake from 7Ate9 at home, and a homemade carrot cake at Adrian's. Adrian made a cake with a cinnamon glaze, instead of the usual cream cheese icing, and it worked very well.
I think we have one piece of the carrot cake left; about half the cheesecake is in the freezer, in single-serving slices.
