I'm gonna start on Christopher's birthday cake today.
He'll be turning 10 tomorrow.
I'll be making a Devil's Food ice cream cake with
Dean's Candy Bar Overload ice cream.
I'll be using one of those Betty Crocker
Bake'n Fill pans. I picked mine up from the thrift
store for around $4.00 still in the box unused.
They probably run about $20 plus shipping
unless you find it in stores.
There are 4 pieces in the box along with directions,
insert pan, tall pan, base pan and dome pan.
2 different size cakes can be made with this kit.
For those that happen to find this set at a yard sale or
thrift store without directions here is a web site
that has them. It also includes some recipes with it.

I keep reading about people getting good deals at Target.
I'm gonna have to try it soon.
Mom pointed out when at Target they have a grocery section.
They have many printable store coupons which can be
combined with manufacture coupons.
Just a note-
I don't think Target doubles coupons so those
are used at face value.
There are 8 pages of coupons to print.

Do you know what I consider a luxury in this house...
A Hot...Realaxing...Quiet...Bath!!
I don't think that is possible for moms!
I have to keep the bathroom
door unlocked because I have little boys that
seem to have to pee every 5 minutes. If I lock it
they would bang on the door continuously till I had
to get out of my hot bath water to unlock it or they'd
be threatening to pee elsewhere and we only have one
bathroom!
When the door is closed the dog goes nuts wanting
to be near me. So I can hear her sniffing and scratching
at the door out in the hallway.
I'm sitting in my hot bath and close the shower curtain
to put up a privacy screen for all those who may enter.
In all reality that's great
when taking a bath because it holds the hot steam/air in!
Also helps to break up any congestion you may have.
It's like when the kids hear water running they have
an instant instinct to have to pee!
I hear the door open. In comes one kid to pee. Tagging
not far behind is the dog who's been waiting patiently
for the chance to come in. She sniffs at the shower
curtain and pokes her head around the side. She pants
happily because she found me, but
the dog breath near the hot moist air in my bath
isn't what I want to be smelling! Yuck!
They leave and in walks another kid to pee who thinks
it's funny to turn the bathroom light off when leaving.
I yell for him to turn it back
on. He does but walks out not shutting the door all the way.
Now the cat comes creeping in to see what I am doing.
This is a cat who likes to prop her front paws up on the
toilet to watch the water swirl down when
flushed. She now has them propped
up on the side of the tub. I sit in fear of the cat
wanting to walk around the sides of the tub, threatening
to fall in with claws out ready to give me a bunch of
shots all at once. I yell for the kids to come get her.
Now it's a family affair as hubby has to come see
what all the yelling is about.
The dog again following behind him. So now I have a cat, dog,
hubby and two younger kids in the bathroom with me while
taking my hot, relaxing bath. They all leave except for
one kids who thinks he's sneaky but I can hear him moving
around on the other side of the shower curtain! Next thing
I know from under the shower curtain comes a fleet of boats
into the tub and some giggling. So here I sit in my hot
bath with a kid who wants to play boats in the water.
He eventually gets bored and leaves me with all these
colorful ships to play with, how nice of him.
The other kid returns to the
bathroom for a second pee and sees the boats in the tub.
He gets the idea to strip naked and wants to join me in the
tub to play with them! This is when I decided my bath time
is over with and get out.
This is the result of my so called hot..relaxing...bath!!!
Calgon take me away!!!
