Today is my 40th birthday, and my handsome husband Kurt has rented a beautiful beach house for us and my best friends on St. Simons Island. To celebrate, we’re cooking up a lowcountry boil poolside tonight, and there’ll be a two-tier layer cake decorated with beach waves, flavored chocolate and vanilla with a raspberry-lemon filling.
