Baking machine

Ok, I think that it is safe to say that I love to bake. Funny enough I don't really ever get to enjoy all of the desserts that I make. I am (so) LUCKY enough to have 2 great kids (who are always will to sample something swee); a husband that loves all things non-chocolate; 4 adult neighbors that say I'm 1 movie deal away from being called "Big Mama" and another 3 kids that ask me all the time "what are you making today?"

With that being said I tried to create something a little new mixed with a lot of old. I thought to myself, how would it taste if I mixed Pilsbury cinnamon rolls with my apple cobbler recipe? So I tried it. Basically, I just opened up the rolls; chopped them up and placed them inside of my apple mixture; baked as normal; and shizzam!... it turned out pretty good.

Here are some pics (I apologize for somem of the angles)

Some-bod-day stop meh! (the Mask)

I am seriously on a baking mission.
I don't know where this mission is going to take me (or my weight) but I'm
eager to keep going.

Last night I decided to make Molten Hot Lava cupcakes.
(patting myself on the back) they were de-lish-us. hmpf.

Ingredients:
chocolate cake batter
package of hot fudge

make cake batter per directions on box
add fudge to tops of cakes


bake as normal (less a few minutes)
flip cupcakes upside down after cooled


top with ice cream/whipped cream/powdered sugar


ENJOY!

Uriah's jokes

Our neighbor's daughter, Uriah (~4 years old) came over last night to share some jokes that she just heard/made up.

U: Why did the banana go to the doctor?
I: I don't know. Why did the banana go to the doctor?

U: Because he was peeling bad!
--------------

U: Have you heard the joke about Humpty Dumpty?
I: No. What joke about Humpty Dumpty?

U: (putting her 'talk to the hand' hand up) Oh, wait, that one cracks me up.
Get it?

I: (puzzled look on my face) oh, yeah, I get it.

Have you figured it out yet?

It's me! I'm the idiot sitting in all this damn traffic every single morning. I wish I had a helicopter, or a real "freeway" to drive on; not the dammed 405 N/S.

Clif is watching his son like a hawk!
