Hi everyone, how is your day going?? Well, it's my Birthday tomorrow. I get to turn 67 years of age!!!! Never thought I would make it this far!!! When I was young, I thought, I would stay young forever. Being old was for those who were already "OLD" like "antique Old" When I was 16 and my mother was 36, like, I thought she was ready for the rocking chair, she was soooooo old. Hahahaha....now I don't think that way, cause now....yep....I am ready for the rocking chair. Of course those that are older then me will say...."OH Louise!!!! You are still young and you have alot of years yet to go"!!!! Well, my mind is willing, but my body ain't!!!!
So anyways, I am celebrating tonight and tomorrow. Tonight, gonna make a steak with mushrooms, fries and salad....doesn't that sound good???? Was thinking of making a little cheese cake with cranberry sauce...we'll see. Tomorrow, I am going to Festival Foods to buy my "Cake Boss" Cake, it will cost $19.99, oh but that's what I want for my Birthday with a candle on top. JP, does not know it yet....but he will sing Happy Birthday to me...hahahahahahaahaha.
Here is my cake. A chocolate ganache cake, hummmmm wonder if I can find the exact makings of this cake on Cake Bosses website. Okay...layers of heavenly chocolate cake with chocolate shavings filled with a creamy fudge filling and topped with Belgian chocolate ganache. A couple of pieces should hit the spot....looking forward to this. What ever is left, I am sure we can freeze it again.
Thought you would enjoy seeing a picture of me when I was 7 or 8 years old. I think this was taken in 1953. A man with a pony would come around and take pictures of the kids in the neighborhood. Have no idea what the cost of a picture was....maybe back then it was $1.00 or 2.00. Gosh, I wonder how long the wait was for the picture...who knows. This was my first attempt to scan a picture and download it into my computer. Then I went to picmonkey.com to crop it, that's a fun program to play with. Must go back there and play some more.
Well, time to close here. Time to walk Kylie around the block. Gosh, it's 5:15 and pitch dark out there already....uge, uge, uge. I miss it being light at this time of the day...the days are soooooo short!!!
You all have a great day and keep looking up for your redemption draws nigh. Cheers ~ Louise
