  • Thursday Throwback – BOO! Cake

    boo-cake

    Welcome to pre-K for Aaron in 1995. He was a scarecrow and signed up to bring the Halloween cake for his daycare class. Back then he went to Milestone EduCare in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I was more Martha Stewart-y back then so instead of doing what a sane mother with a job would do – order one from the bakery I made it. I have to say to this day I am proud of how the “Monster ARGGGHH!!” (make claw like hands beside your face while saying it) cake turned out. I do not want to know what it looked like when 8 3 yr olds and 2 teachers were finished. I like to remember it as it was. I’m sure no one else remembers, not even “Monster ARGGGHH!!” Aaron but I remember it fondly as my BOO! Cake.

    Happy Birthday Beloved

    My dear husband is a hard worker. He holds down two jobs really – his civilian job and his Navy Reserves job. Tomorrow is his birthday but he’s traveling for the Navy this weekend. So we celebrated a few days ago when we both were home at dinner time.

    Happy Birthday Mike!

    As you can see he got the world’s smallest cake. Neither one of us wanted cake leftovers to tempt us so the small cake was enough for each to have a piece and he to have some for his lunch dessert the next day.

    Kinda busy – had to take some extra shifts at work to help out. Which is okay since I’ll be working the Saturday he’s gone. Hey it helps out and I make money – win, win! I just have a lot to do today since I don’t have the whole weekend as I first thought!

    Until next time!
