HOMEMADE VEGAN BIRTHDAY CAKE-2009
I am CURRENTLY a PRACTICING PHYSICIAN .However, I did complete TWO YEARS of college studying GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY, Food technology,Food Microbiology and Biochemistry prior to deciding that I am more inclined to the CLINICAL SIDE of things and hence decided to get into MEDICAL SCIENCE .I did very well in medical school thereafter and am now a "kick-ass" doctor .My interest in "Food" and the "Science of cooking" continues to this day and explains why I now have a Food blog as part of my LECINQBLOG family.I seek to dispel FOOD FADS, food myths via this food blog.I seek also to increase health awareness by canvassing for healthier diets.
Yeah, that was my own birthday cake from 2009.Yeah, it is vegan.
yeah, I MADE IT MYSELF.
The whole cake was a MEMORY recall moment of a cake that I HAD ONCE EATEN at a class party in 9th grade.A cake one of my friend's mom had made.IT WAS a vanilla sponge with chocolate frosting and candied fennel sprinkles.Truly spongy and JUST RIGHT..I will remember that cake forever.
I tried to REPLICATE THAT MEMORY by making a vegan version of it in 2009 for my birthday.
It was tasty AND I throughly enjoyed spending MY BIRTHDAY ALONE ,with just me myself, baking a cake for myself and making my own favorite birthday dinner for myself too..I LOVE SPENDING ALONE TIME WITH MYSELF, BIRTHDAY OR NOT..I love unwinding with music or reading or blogging , ALL ALONE..Allows me to find my INNER BALANCE...on a peaceful note..
I HATE PARTIES OR CROWDS especially on a special day like my own birthday.So, I don't like gifts and I DON'T ACCEPT birthday gifts..I don't take calls even..(MAYBE with the exception of my parents..)
NICE CUTE COLORFUL CAKE, NO?
