Happy belated Birthday!

Andrew's birthday was January 4th. We couldn't celebrate his birthday because we were on a plane returning from Canada. I decided to surprise him 10 days later after his birthday. I baked a cake one day before and hid it with a present in our house. I put candles on the small cake and sang Happy Birthday to him.
I know he likes lemon cake. I chose to make a lemon blueberry cheesecake. First of all, I pressed cookies crumbs into the bottom of my tin and baked it.
I prepared lemon peel and juice using a new grater I bought in Canada. This tool is a star in my kitchen. I can grate much more lemon peel with the grater than my old one.
I mixed cream cheese, an egg, sugar, lemon juice and lemon peel together.
And I poured blueberries over the cream cheese mixture.
After I baked it, I hid the cheesecake in a secret place.
I liked the cake because it had a good lemon taste. The birthday boy liked it too. He liked the bottom crust a lot.
