Had a lovely non-mushy weekend.<\/p>\n
I made a lemon cake, from a recipe I found. I won’t say it was a disaster, because that would be a lie, but it certainly didn’t go perfectly. The big mistake was when pouring the batter into the pans I discovered that no, these were not 9 inch pans I had, but were 8 inch pans.<\/p>\n
My cake floweth over.<\/p>\n
The other problem was that the cake was fairly dry, and not very lemony. I guess I’ll have to tweak the recipe I have and see if I can fix those problems, because there does not seem to be a lot out there in the way of lemon cake recipes that I’ve been able to find.<\/p>\n
The frosting however, is very delicious, but then I didn’t exactly follow the recipe there. That also needs tweaked, but only for consistency, not for taste. (Tangy lemon! Yum! Yum!)<\/p>\n
And, I made Minestrone soup, which I hadn’t done since last winter. I’d forgotten how good that soup smells. Definitely have delicious lunches this week.<\/p>\n
And that’s about it. I gave Michael season 4 for of Deep Space 9, so much geekiness occurred at our house this weekend (Season 4 is when Worf joins. He’s so cute<\/i>!)<\/p>\n
And that is it. I’m not sure if Michael is enjoying the Tai Chi class or not, but he needs both the exercise and the relaxation, so I’m not excessively worried about it. We really need to work exercise for him into our schedule, but I’m just not sure how to do it, unless we start getting up early to go to the gym. (Getting up early. Yuck.)<\/p>\n
And thus the conclusion of another weekend. Nothing exciting, but I’m not complaining. “May you live in exciting times,” is a curse you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
