See it on the ancient breadboard next to the sink with a dirty colander and the counter full of this and that?
That's my birthday cake. :)
I got home from work and my lovely daughter had baked a cake.
Not just any old cake, either.
A thick, dense chocolate cake with cream cheese icing. All made from scratch.
That is one delicious cake. If I weren't already married and all that, I could marry that cake. That's how wonderful it is. :)
SO good!!

Let's see... a regular day. Work and nap and work.
Kids made a messy project today, shaving cream and glue mix. Looks like snow. They made various things on a piece of very thick card stock out of snow, and tomorrow is the day they decorate their snowmen and snow scenes with bits of felt and sticks and beads and buttons.
A few parents stopped by and wondered aloud, "Isn't that kind of a messy project?"
To which I answered with a big smile, "Why yes! It is. That's the point!"
I've been taking photos of their other little projects. And will share them. I will. Eventually.

I bought some cookies for the kids. Since it was my birthday and I could. :)
They were pretty happy about it, except Molly* wished the cookies were bigger or that we could have more. Greg* sort of smacked her on the arm and said, "You could be a little more grateful, you know."

Greg is 8.

Off to bed after a nice birthday, a nice hot shower and CAKE. :)
Happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteAnd when I happened to run the computer cursor over the photo of the cake I had the option to Pin It ... somehow I thought you'd get a kick out of that, considering your list of all the things wrong with the picture (which I wouldn't have noticed, being too much focussed on CAKE).
What a sweet, thoughtful daughter!
