Birthday Party

Last week was Youth Fusion's Leadership Coordinator, Astrid's BIRTHDAY! Instead of our regular healthy cooking on Wednesdays we decided to throw a birthday party and bake a cake. It was a healthy blueberry oatmeal cake. Super easy to make and delicious! Check out the recipe below and some pictures from the party. One of Astrid's gifts was a red Waswanipi hat.
