We had a great day of celebration. Bruce arrived home after work to see his wife grilling, for the first time ever. I didn't even burn the pork chops, and the garlic mashed potatoes were a hit. Then there was the cake: Orange Chocolate Chile Marble Cake. Wow, right down to the last forkful of truffle-glazed gooey-ness.
After cake we went to see a new play, "Sleepy Hollow, The Musical," written and directed by our friend and neighbor (and doubtless inspired by our neighborhood). It was incredible! I can't do justice here to the clever lyrics, entertaining characters, and creepy staging, but when this show hits Broadway, I suggest you all attend! Anyway, we enjoyed every minute and were glad for the great company.
What do you say, Bruce? Was it a good day?

It was awesome -- the cake, the play, the company, the whole day. Thank you!
What is the recipe? Where did you find it? Sounds yummy.
I should have linked to the recipe. Here it is. Not too hard, and very yummy. http://www.bhg.com/recipe/cakes/orange-ancho-marble-cake/
Happy Birthday Bruce! And I love the Halloween costumes---you all looked great. Looks like the Harry Potter thing was fun as well--I wish they did things like that here.
Glad Bruce had a Happy Birthday. We think he is pretty spectacular too.
A little sad we didn't get to come have some of that cake though... Yummy!
