Mar 31

The cakes are cooling and it’s not even midnight…

My does time fly with my hectic schedule. Today was one of those days…school, leave lunch for my sis, return to work, staff meeting, pick-up Ela, wrap things up at the shop for the day (including getting some important info for a client and booking an in-store book fair),  hurry home to prep stuff for church, load the car with help, unload the car alone at church trying not to damage my already wrapped hand/wrist, teach the girls in my youth group to applique, pack the car up with help, head to the grocery store for cake mix (Ela wants to take a cake to school tomorrow), start to make cake only to realize I’m short one egg, return to grocery store, wait and wait and wait in the “Express Lane” (can people not count? 10 items or less, not more, LESS), return home, carefully crack eggs to make some cascarones for Easter, blend all ingredients slowly for 30 seconds then on medium for 4 minutes, split batter into 2 glass baking dishes, set in oven, nuke a probably-very-unhealthy-MSG-laden-Asian-meal-I-found-for-less-than-90-cents-on-my-second-run-to-the-market, eat, read, eat, read, what’s that smell?, take the cake out before the timer goes off because the cakes look beyond golden, set the cakes to cool, realize I should blog my crazy day because most days are like this and this is why I haven’t blogged in quite some time. But that’s okay, because it just turned 12:00am on my digital alarm clock and I’ve got this post done and the cakes are cooling, ready to be frosted in the morning.  Ela will be so happy.
