Labor Day and a Happy Birthday.

Labor Day, a Happy Birthday Day... and a Labor Saving Day all rolled into one!

Today is "the boy next door"'s Birthday, and since the birthday boy gets to not only choose his birthday meal, he gets to choose his birthday cake as well,  we went very labor saving - in his honor, of course.

If it had been up to me, of course I would have happily worked my little tail off, cooking a fancy schmancy, multi-coursed birthday dinner for the man who's the best thing that's ever happened to me.

But he won out.

Bisquick for the waffles

Oven baked bacon

and homemade apricot cobbler.

All served on paper plates.

Happy Birthday, sweetheart!
