5 minute break

A crazy busy first week of school ended successfully yesterday, and after running a whole heap of errands today, I finally have time to sit for a few minutes before watching a movie with the offspring. I had a GREAT party on Sunday, lots of family, friends good food and silliness. Being a master baker, I made my own birthday cake, a dark chocolate cake infused with with fresh orange zest (oranges from MY trees no less), chili powder and triple sec. I glazed my cake with a glaze created with dark chocolate, Citronge and habanero tobasco. Chocolate cake with some heat! For those who did not share my love of hot hot hot food, I also made lemon cupcakes with french vanilla frosting.This decadent display of baking prowess followed a good old fashioned home made spread of Filipino food! Ok, now I'm hungry AGAIN!

My point for buzzing through today is to let you know that I'm still alive, I'M 40, and I posted some new photos...Check it out when you can...I'm off again. Always? For now? Anyway...I'm off--------->We'll meet back here again soon! Kisses~R

Velocirapturously

Laughing,designing, cutting,pinning,sewing,chopping,mixing,cooking,baking,rolling,frosting,tasting,planning,

losing,training,testing,swearing,driving,camping,coming,going,staying….And that’s just the last couple of weeks! Tomorrow is a big day for me, IT’S MY 40TH BIRTHDAY! And I am absolutely GIDDY!

As you might have noticed, I’ve started giving this poor abandoned place a fresh coat of paint, moved some things around and dusted off the cobwebs. As soon as the fruit loops of my loins are settled back in school next week and there’s a bit of order restored to mi casa, I think I might write again. I do miss it. Most days.

Now, my free time is over and it’s back to the party preparations for tomorrow’s shindig! Next time I’m back in here, I’LL BE 40! WHEEEEEEE!!
