So after yesterday’s debacle, I told you about… I was going to make a from-scratch cake. The recipe I had called for 1 1/2 sticks of butter at room temperature. I let 2 sticks come to room temp, took them out of the package and threw them in the mixer, and that’s when I noticed…
As you may or may not know, I have a {step}daughter. Having a stepchild is a bit of a challenge {just because she isn’t there every day}, but so far she and I have a good relationship. It may change someday, I hope not, but at this point, who knows. Last Friday my {step}daughter’s school…
Do you ever just have days, you almost wish, you hadn’t gotten out of bed? A few weekends ago we were going to throw my father-in-law a retirement party. My mom, bless her heart, volunteered to do our portion of the food, but a few years ago I took cake decorating classes and I actually…

Do you remember as a kid how we always wanted to “grow up”? Wanted to be big. Wanted to be strong. Wanted to be on our own. Yeah I’m thinking I want to be a kid again. Let mom and dad deal with the problems of the world and I’ll be oblivious! I want my…
So back in the day…. say July 2009… the first time my husband came over to my house and met my family… 8 days after we’d gone on our first date… Celebrating my 26th birthday (If I remember right) and my grandma’s 77th birthday…. I was born on her birthday…. my uncle found a recipe…
Back sometime around like 2005, 2006, something like that, I was at my aunt’s house looking at all her cookbooks. Ok so she has a cookbook fetish like I do… but anyway I stumbled across Any Bitch Can Cook. Ok so I giggled. When you open it up, the first page says Babe In Total…
The difference between school and life? In school, you’re taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches you a lesson.” ~Tom Bodett Laugh when you can, Apologize when you should and Let go of what you can’t change. 1. “Drink” from the ‘everlasting cup’ every day….
