Raspberry and Strawberry Quarantine Cake
Happy birthday to me! You know we’re all in quarantine this year, so I had to make my birthday own cake. Honestly, I didn’t mind at all because my cake turned out bomb! I adapted a recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction and it turned out so delish! I just made a few changes to suit my taste and voila! Dream birthday cake. Let’s jump right into what you’ll need.

Have you ever bought a gown knowing you would never wear it again? I’m going to take a wild guess and say the answer is yes!

This time around I got to try out a beautiful tulle evening dress and I was not disappointed! I’m honestly in shock at how lovely this dress is for the price point.
