With candles lit and a song, we celebrated DH’s birthday.
Eating cake in the silhouette darkness was kind-na fun, cosy and romantic!! I was glad for the darkness as I had kept decorations 'simple', taking the minimalist approach. Lolz
I'll post the recipe later, if anyone is interested.
Here is what the cake looked like with the lights turned 'ON'.
Earlier in the afternoon we even had a dress rehearsal when a raging lightning and thunderstorm took out the power and left us in darkness for a couple of hours. Not to mention smoking DH’s computer speakers in the process. *There is some truth in unplugging your electricals during a severe thunderstorm!!* Despite the lack of electricity, thankfully it was breezy and kept us ‘cool’. Great to vegetate or have a go at a short nap, well that is if you could ignore the flashes of lightning and rumbling thunder outside! Ha ha
