It’s my birthday!!!

As of today, I’m 28 years old. Inching closer to 30 is scary, but I really can’t complain about life.

This past weekend my husband gave me an early birthday gift (Jeffree Star’s Blood Sugar palette ahh!!) and I took some time to bake my ideal birthday cake – a no-bake fruity pebbles cheesecake.

You know how they say “If you want something done right, do it yourself”? I had a specific vision of my cake, and I made it happen. It was also a lot cheaper than buying a cake. Check out the recipe below!
