You may be thinking, Victoria isn't The Man currently unemployed? Surely with The Man home, the two of you have the place well organized. Pfft. He is the worst offender. I have come to the conclusion that there may very well be two types of people in the world. People who like flat surfaces cleaned off and people who like stuff on top of all flat household surfaces--especially counter tops. So sooner he finds employment, sooner I have less counter-clutter stress.
As I said above, I have a brutal headache, and perhaps that is 10% of the reason The Man is in The Doghouse. The rest is all him. Bah. Grumble, Swear Words. Plus we got snow. Double Bah.
Okay enough of that, I'm building a bridge, I'm getting over it. On to some food talk.
But before that, are you a member of Swagbucks? You use their search engine and you collection points and redeem the points for gift cards and whatnot. I joined about 3 wks ago and already have over 700 points. 450 points can get you a $5 gift card, so as you can see you can quickly rack them up. I like to save loyalty points for Christmas time shopping.
Want to join? You can click below and if you join today you get 140 points for signing up! Such a deal.
Today I made a product from the New Spring/Summer Line from Tastefully Simple . It is a Strawberry Buckle cake called Strawberry Swirl Buckle Cake Mix. All you need to make it is 3/4 cup water and 3 tablespoons melted butter. We've had buckle cakes in the past and I seem to recall that they called for more butter, so it is nice that this time around it takes just a wee bit of butter for an amazing cake. For your homework today, research what the heck is buckle cake.
Now I am signing off as I am going to try and squeeze in 1 hour of quiet dark time before Anna and I have to head over to Glen Oaks School for Mother/Daughter night. We will be making Jewelry.
Next blog I'll be sharing a very simple Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup.
