Celebrating Daddy’s Birthday

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #010 Munchkin is still sick, so Daddy’s birthday wasn’t very exciting.  We still had a nice day together, and I surprised D with some gluten free peanut butter cup cupcakes.  I made some chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter butter cream frosting.  For fun, I added a peanut butter cup on top and a few candies.  We were all on a little sugar high after eating the cupcakes, but they were delicious.  We watched a movie together, and then D and Munchkin had fun making paper airplanes.  It was not the birthday that we had originally planned, but…

A Working Stove and Oven

Posted in Holidays, and Homemaking

I had always taken a working stove/oven for granted until we started renting a house where the oven was completely unreliable and the burners on the stove didn’t work quite right.  Then, D blessed me at our previous house with a very nice stove/oven, and I realized, once again, how nice it was to have a quality, working appliance. In this house, I have a nice gas stove/oven that works.  While it may not be as nice as the one at our last house, it keeps an even, consistent temperature in the oven and all of the burners work well. …
