We were kind of late rolling out of bed on Sunday (8/22) and then spent time SKYPE-ing with AJ. Finally my honey made me breakfast around 11 AM:
and then made something for himself:
Susie B stopped by to drop off a project she had completed for me…but I’m going to save those pictures until after show & tell at Scrap Happy on Thursday. After that Michael headed for the grocery store and CVS, while I decided it was time to make him a treat :~). It’s been VERY hot lately and I wanted to make one of his childhood favorites…an ICEBOX cake. I made chocolate pudding (yes….from scratch…it literally takes only 15 minutes!) and then layered it with cinnamon graham crackers:
Three layers of crackers and 3 layers of pudding, and into the fridge (or I guess I should say ice box) it went!
I sat to read my book for just a bit as I didn't want to put the piping hot ice box cake onto a very cold refrigerator shelf...and somehow...suddenly it was 4 PM!!! It is always amazing to me just how quickly the day goes by when we end up getting up late.
Anyway, my honey decided to make his crab salad:
for dinner over the next couple of nights, and I was his sous chef, finely chopping onion:
and peppers:
and slightly larger pieces of celery:
He likes to make it at least a day before we will be eating it to let the flavors meld.
We watched another THE BEAST MUST DIE and then finished off the evening with pieces of Ice Box Cake:
and another BRITISH BAKING SHOW with the cast from one of their sitcoms. It was really funny to watch these non-bakers compete and at one point at the end, Michael paused the playback because we were laughing too hard to pay any attention!
