Ruth's recital

Ruth participated in a little recital at a local senior citizens residence. She really enjoys playing the piano. It's so nice that she is inspired to play now.
The video and audio quality isn't great but it gets the point across.

Magic in the middles

Ruth had a little piano recital yesterday and she specifically requested that I make these cookies for it.

Yes, you guessed it. It's a chocolate cookie with a peanut butter filling.

They are called "Magic in the Middles" from King Arthur Flour

Chocolate cake anyone?

I got to make a cake for an employee's last day. This is really the best chocolate cake ever. It's Alton Brown's German chocolate cake. If you are going to make it, I will share my shortcuts with you.

(I wish I could send you a piece Grace. ;)

My little sinner

How does my 22 month old have so much attitude in one look? 

Oh have mercy Lord. 

Enjoy life!

Why does the enemy love trying to consume our minds with analyzing the past and worrying about the future? God created us to "enjoy". Be here today right now for your neighbor, friend, husband, children, etc.

Here's my Saturday morning splurge. You gotta splurge every once in awhile.
