Spruce Happenings: Triple Birthday Bonanza!

We have a trio of Pisces ladies in the house! This month we celebrated three Sprucette birthdays. Yes, both Clar and Amanda share a birthday on March 11, and my birthday is March 21 (so I’m technically an Aries, but I’m right at the cusp). As per tradition, we organized a special lunch involving delicious baked goods and a gift exchange with the team.

What's sweeter than a delicious cake made from scratch? Um, nothing!

Katherine made a fantastic strawberry cake for Clar and Amanda’s birthday, using an old recipe she obtained from our friend Martha Hopkins.

Clar received an unexpected delivery: a bouquet from her mother!

Katherine really is one of the best bakers we know. For my birthday, she whipped up some addictive chocolate chip cookies – my favorite!

 I have to say, I think the Sprucettes give the best gifts…

A giant sardine pillow from Ikea, which makes since we're a trio of Pisces. Thanks Clar!

At Spruce, we work hard but we love taking time to celebrate the little things in life. Happy birthday to all of you celebrating birthdays this month!
