happy birthday bunks!

yesterday was the 2nd birthday of dr. bunkins. yes, we picked the day arbitrarily, although i was told that bunks was 6 months old when i got him (so that would make his bday in july, but i like aug 10 better). since we didn't celebrate his 1st bday (oops i think i forgot), we had to do his 2nd bday in style!

i started the day off by making carrot cake cupcakes from scratch with cream cheese frosting (only the best for the bunks). naturally, a little carrot garnish was necessary. after a quick jog and some field hockey practice with my friend sonija (i'm coaching field hockey at school this fall season!!), she was put in charge of creating the carrot juice, blood orange italian soda, and gin concoction! we used gin because that's all we had, hehe. it was actually quite tasty! for dinner, the humans had udon noodle soup with peas, beef balls, dumplings, and yu choy (chinese kale) as the entree and baked spaghetti squash stuffed with tomato sauce and cheese as a side dish (andrew's creation). we went for a diverse meal, since my mini rex bunny is of a diverse background. then it was time for the bday bunny's dessert, since he was losing his patience waiting for us to finish dinner. andrew made quite the concoction for him: pellet-stuffed raspberry with 3 blueberries and carrot juice (pure with nothing added!). after the birthday song, bunks dove in. no attention to manners, whatsoever. at the end, bunks licked his bowl clean. sonija and bernardo witnessing the action: finally, we helped ourselves to the carrot cake cupcakes, each with a candle in it to celebrate the bday bunny. note to self: do not hold bunnies near open flame. he was not a fan and scrambled to free himself from my clutches. muhahahappy birthday, bunkies!
