This week marks TheHappyHousewife.com’s<\/a> 3rd birthday! It is hard to believe that it has been 3 years since I wrote my first post. This site has gone through a lot of changes over the past few years, but one thing has not changed. I have the best readers in the world!! I’m not exaggerating one bit, I look forward to every comment and email I receive. Over the years I have even been able to chat on the phone and meet some of you in person. \u00a0Lifelong friendships have come from this little blog!<\/p>\n

While blogs don’t exist because of readers, they wouldn’t be very fun to write if no one was reading, so thank you for making these past three years awesome!<\/p>\n

Even though it is my blog birthday, I think you should get the gifts! I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than to give you some of my favorite things! For the next week I’m going to be giving away my favorite things on the blog, Facebook<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, and to subscribers<\/a>! On Friday I have an amazing gift I want to give to one reader… but you’ll have to check back on Friday to see what favorite thing I am giving away.<\/p>\n

What’s a birthday without cake? For me it isn’t a birthday at all since I don’t like ice cream. To get the celebration started I’m giving away one of my favorite cake ebooks!<\/p>\n

More Cool Cakes <\/a><\/p>\n

Not only does this e-booklet include the basics to making home decorated cakes yourself, but it also includes recipes for buttercream frostings and for doctoring up cake mixes as well as over a dozen different cake and cupcake themes that you can duplicate or use as inspiration for your own custom variations.<\/p>\n

What I LOVE about Jessica’s cakes is that you don’t have be a professional decorator to make them! The are easy and even a novice cake maker can give their child an amazing birthday cake with her simple directions.<\/p>\n

To start the party I’ve giving away one of these ebooks. To enter leave a comment. And don’t forget to check back tomorrow for the next gift!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
