First off, a big ol’ happy (belated) birthday to Mr. Pink Eyes!
Second off, an equally proportioned but significantly less belated happy birthday to Mr. Saturday!
My own birthday was Friday, and I am 31, and I love it so far. The Boyf made me Red Velvet Cake, and I really can’t express how much I love him.
We had a very busy weekend, including a fantastic meal at Bascha‘s.
Bascha supplied us with a fabulous gumbo and Mr. Pink Eyes brought
cinnamon-swirl cake. I tried to make a cornbread recipe I
described to Bascha as “ambitious,” and failed utterly. It lost
all bread-like qualities and came out mush. Andy was kind enough
to describe it as “corn pone,” and after it had some time to set in a
tupper ware container it actually turned into a very tasty sort of
lumpy corn thing. Hell, we ate it, whatever it was.
Also, I have another update to Pigs Are Good People, if you’re reading that one.
Finally, KJ has put up a new photoblog and it is awesome. You must check it. (more…)
