Crazy how when the pandemic started I was 24 and now I’m turning 26… how time flies! Take a look into my vegan-friendly birthday!
Just like my 25th birthday, this year’s birthday celebration looks different than what it usually does. Ever since going vegan, my family takes me to a vegan restaurant to celebrate. This year I decided to amp it up a bit and get more creative with decoration, as well as bringing the restaurant experience home.
So much happened on my 25th year on this planet, but I’ll spare you the boring details and go right towards thanking you for being here! Even if you just got here, thank you for being here.
Take A Look Into My Vegan-friendly Birthday:
My grandmother and step-grandad woke me up at the crack of dawn, but it was worth it because they gave me the most beautiful yellow roses! Then I made myself a smoothie as per usual and proceeded to clean my room because I made a mess unpacking from my trip. My family gave me gifts which included avocados, jewelry and two soy eucalyptus candles which I absolutely love! (I’m seriously obsessed with eucalyptus candles)
Then I got dressed and headed to pick up my birthday cake from Earthy Choice. This year I chose to go with a carrot cake, because it’s literally my favorite cake (yes, even over chocolate) and up until this year no one here made vegan carrot cakes for selling outside of restaurants.

Picked up lunch: beer battered tofu strips, fries and a chipotle sour cream dipping sauce.
Went back home to finish cleaning and to set up the decoration. This year’s decoration is brought to you by KK Teepees PR. This company provides unique decorations to make any event more fun! You can rent their teepees and picnic setups as a sustainable option for decorating your party. Here’s how my setup turned out:
Then it was time to party!
Since we’re still going through a pandemic, I kept my birthday limited to my close circle. Better be safe than sorry!
My mom prepared a vegan charcuterie board with my favorite cheeses and cold cuts.
The food was provided by Orgánico Bistro, a local vegan friendly restaurant in my hometown. Together we decided the menu for my birthday: Veggie Rice, Cauliflower Au Gratin, Salad with a Coconut Dressing. All vegan of course!
A while after my family sang me happy birthday, we ate the most delicious cake that I’ve had in a while! Seriously, check out Earthy Choice; Thais makes vegan pastries, cookies, cakes and more!
That’s it, thank you so much for being here. I hope I can keep you for the years to come.
