Sunday Morning Rain is Falling....
Well not quite. It's just a brisk, fall Sunday morning punctuated with a light wind, some amazing colors falling from the trees, and an Eagles game. So the weekend is over and I'm tres sad, really I am. It's like Friday night comes and then before you know it, it's back to the Monday morning grind. The reason this weekend went so quickly for me is because I stayed up late Friday night baking some really yummy butter cookies and then got up at the crack of dawn to drive them home to Maryland. Doesn't seem like alot, but it is. I went to the Eastern Shore of the state first, my place of birth, to visit with the fam AND to get a Micky D's Sweet Tea (which later end up being a horrible idea...let's just saying drinking something the size of a Big Gulp and driving clearly wasn't one of my better decisions - I'm so not a rest stop kind of girl.). Then I crossed the Bay Bridge to visit with a near and dear childhood friend of mine who just purchased her first piece of real estate in PG County. It's a lovely little home and I'm green with envy. We spent the entire day goofing off and plotting her Architectural Digest aspirations. This house will be absolutely devine when she's done with it. I know.
It was a lovely day, one of the best times I've had in along time. It's so good to be with your girlfriends - It fulfills me in ways I can't believe, I wish I could spend more time with my girls like on SATC...I know it sounds so corny and Waiting to Exhalish but I can't help it. Wait, I want to believe that me and this friend went to see Waiting to Exhale when we're in high school. I remember climbing in somebody's car for a trip to Salisbury to see a Rated R movie...for the first time, without my mother buying the ticket!!!
Anyway, let me get out of memory ditch. I'm sure you're wondering about the cakes, these two cakes were from my cousin's lovely wedding in Maryland last month. She had her wedding on the water, so it was a beach themed wedding. The one cake is the wedding cake and the other is a traditional chocolate grooms cakes. Yes, us Marylander's truly believe we are traditionally Southerners - none of that Mid-Atlantic crap. Anyway, the cakes were YUMMO!!! And yes, this hungry hippo had a slice of each and yes, this hungry hippo made sure to take some slices home with her and proceed to threaten her husband with death if he even thought about taking a bite.
And don't these two make such a darling couple? Oh, to be that young again!!!
Okay, so blogger is having issues therefore not allowing me to upload my too cute for words pictorials. I will do so later in the day when technology and suga can work togther. Besides, the Eagles are on and the ATM and his brothers are downstairs destroying the den and I must go down to supervise.
Oh well my peanut butter kisses, I have nothing to wax on about. Trying to save the creative juices for the side hustle.
Yours in suga, buttercream, and oreo cookies
Sweet Honey Child
