For part of my birthday present my boyfriend took me to BFD...a concert with performances from tons of bands that is held every year at Shoreline Amphitheater near home. We had such a good time! The weather was perfect and the music was great. Shoreline concerts are always such a fun part of Summer, and I'm so glad that I got to go to at least one of them this year. 

I had a birthday dinner the weekend after my birthday to celebrate the big 2-0 with my family, my boyfriend, and my best friend Nina. It was so nice to get together with all the people I love, and the food was yummy too! However, the cake stole the show and was absolutely AMAZING...the best red velvet cake I've ever had. I am so glad that I got to see my family and best friend while I was home for my short stay. 

I had to start my 20th birthday the right way...with my favorite type of breakfast (french toast) of course! And I of course had to go where I knew I could choose from like 30 different french toast options, 26th Beach Cafe in Venice. I choose the "Reese's Pieces" french toast and was quickly sent into food heaven with how amazing it tasted....definitely the perfect start to my birthday! It was also so nice being there with friends and getting together with them before everyone left for all their own summer adventures. My friends were also wonderful to me and gave me a cake, flowers, champagne, and other snacks to help me celebrate! 

After my birthday brunch, I hopped on a plane and headed home for the beginning of my summer break. My parents and my boyfriend took me to dinner at my favorite sushi restaurant, TGI Sushi, and I again had amazing food. I got to eat my favorite rainbow roll and my mom and the restaurant surprised me with some yummy desserts, cupcakes and strawberry sorbet. I certainly got my fill of my favorite foods on my birthday! Overall, my 20th was a good one and I had a great day celebrating and kicking off my summer!
