Good Morning!

What is new with you? After a long weekend, I have to go back to work :(

QOTD: What is your favorite type of cake?

Re: Good Morning!

  • Good morning!  Not much is new around here.  I had to schedule my first dental appointment here.  I'm always a bit nervous to go to the dentist, but the first visit with a new dentist is making me really crazy nervous.  And I am pretty sure I have a cavity, which is only intensifying my apprehension.  By next Wednesday I will be a trembling mess of fear.

    QOTD:  Any cake that gets me the maximum amount frosting.  I believe cake is merely a frosting delivery device.  But that does not mean I'm happy with crappy cake.  I want a good, moist cake with tons o'frosting.

  • Happy belated dia de San Jose! Madrid was fabulous this weekend. I swear I gain five pounds as soon as I land on Spanish soil, but I don't care. I ate so, so, so well all weekend and love that I shared those meals with my extended family. I think I needed that pretty badly after living in a new country with no support system for the last two months.

    I like red velvet a lot, but really, I'm an equal opportunity cake-eater.

  • Morning.  I had a 4 day weekend which was nice - nothing major happened... Minded niece overnight on Saturday, my parents and grandmother came for lunch on Sunday (Mother's Day here) (and yes, I cooked, not dh...) and went to ILs for lunch yesterday.   A short week this week seeing as I'm still off on Fridays! And a wedding this Saturday (a night away from N)

    QOTD: I think it would be chocolate biscuit cake with fondant icing on top... but the chocolate biscuit cake would have to be made with Callebaut chocolate and have Malteasers & marshmallows in it too... Fussy? Me? ;-) 

    But I like most cakes really as long as they don't have cherries in them...

  • Morning!

    We had our Persian New Year celebrations last night, a great dinner, too much wine and M got a ton of gifts. 

    QOTD: I'm not much of a cake eater, but my favourite would be chocolate.

     

  • Afternoon!  I'm beat.  We had a long weekend.  Good, but long.  I'm planning on resting all day (well, and doing laundry) before kicking back into gear tomorrow..

    QOTD:  I like a yellow cake with chocolate frosting.  Or chocolate cake with chocolate. Chocolate should be involved somehow for sure.

  • Morning! 

    My week end sucked! I've been sick since Friday night with the worst dry cough I've ever head. I can't sleep and am just miserable :( I was supposed to audition on Sunday and wasn't able to. BLAH!

    QOTD: I'm not into cakes that much but my fave here in NYC is the raw Tiramis? from Pure Food and Wine. hmmmmmmm When in Italy I can't resist grabbing my favorite crostata in Sutri (50km north of Rome), where my aunt lives.
