can you bring me some milk, bread & eggs?

Jan 17, 2014

yes, again

Snow again today and more in the weekend forecast. Funny how the first snow we’re all about staying inside… and after about 3 rounds with the white stuff we gain total confidence to travel in it. If not for the fact that I’m under the weather (NO voice whatsoever — and wondering who is loving that most), I’d head out just for fun.

2 things to note:

  1. One pesky neighbor in particular is freaking out right about now because I don’t have a fluorescent bulb in this outside light. I’ll replace it soon (along with the fixture)! I promise. Please don’t lecture me.
  2. Yes, that’s a red Christmas bow adorning the bottom of the snow-covered lamp. Evidently people in Seymour keep decorations up longer. The doctor living across the street still lights the huge wreaths that adorn the front of his house so I figure the 2 leftover bows are ok. For today anyway.

While I’m waiting on you to bring my milk, bread and eggs, I just have to share the recipe for 3,2,1 cake — because it’s so darned easy…

1 box angel food cake mix
1 box any other cake mix (I prefer carrot cake)
icing

In a large baggie mix the 2 boxes of cake mix. To prepare, mix 3 tablespoons of dry mix and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl or microwave safe container — microwave for 1 minute (3, 2, 1). Ice while warm.

Single serving of yummy dessert that takes less than 2 minutes from start to finish? Oh yah! I can handle that… and that baggie will make a whole bunch of 3,2,1 delicious.
