I had the most magical
birthday surprise, all thanks to my sister and my best friend. If you’ve been
following my blog for a while, you already know how much I love baking (about
80% of my recipes here are baked treats). So imagine my excitement when they surprised
me with a bake-and-sip experience, it was thoughtful, fun, and absolutely
perfect. I enjoyed every single moment.
The first activity of
the day was baking banana bread from scratch. And if you know me, you’ll understand
how perfect that was, I absolutely love banana bread. It’s one of my go-to bakes, and I make it
almost every week.
Next up was cake decorating, and it was such a fun hands-on activity. We nibbled on snacks while adding our creative touches to our cake, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
The snacks and drinks
were absolutely amazing, and to top it off, we settled in to watch a movie
while enjoying them. It felt so cozy and relaxing.


I absolutely loved the
décor of the place, it was beautiful and set the perfect vibe for the day. By
the end of it all, I was so happy because I truly enjoyed every moment.










This is such a lovely activity. Never heard of decorate and sip. Love the idea.
