Great news for all you readers out there searching for an allergen-friendly dessert for the holidays. Look no further! I made this awesome Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake this year for Thanksgiving. It's egg-free, soy-free, and gluten-free.
I spent a good bit of time looking for an egg-free cheesecake recipe, only to find that most of them either used cashews (a bit pricey) or tofu (soy is a no-no for me) as fillers. Grrr... So, then I found this egg-free cheesecake recipe and was inspired to make it my own.
Who knew you don't really need eggs, wheat, tofu or cashews to make an amazing cheesecake with a really great cheesecake texture? News to me. But, trust me, it's totally possible.
And totally delicious.

Happy Birthday!
Yesterday was my birthday... It was a pretty good day. Had to work, but that's life, right?
- M sent me flowers at work. My faves - pink gerber daisies! Awww... isn't he sweet to me?
- Feeding the ducks at the park.
- Chilling with my favorite guy after dinner.
- Birthday dessert - Cheesecake!
Apparently, there was a 5K going on that night around the park... so we sat on the bench and watched people run by while eating our burritos. The irony of it all just gets me.
After dinner, we took a walk around the pond and fed the ducks. M commented that the ducks quacking sounded like evil laughter... you'd have to be there. But it sort of did.
Cheesecake! I will be doing a separate post on this in the near future. It was AMAZING. And yes, I made it myself. Every year when I mention to anyone that I make my own birthday dessert, I get these sympathetic comments. But really, I enjoy this part of my birthday the most... choosing a different dessert and making it. YUM.
Another year to thank God for and a fresh year ahead to accomplish great things. Hope you'll come along for the ride!
