Aaaahhhh Fond Memories.

Not much going on today to blog about, same old same old.  That's a good thing though!!  However, sitting watching the food network and all the cupcake shows reminds me of a heartbreaking incident.

A few months ago I bought one of those icing kits that comes with assorted tips. Excited to try it out me and my daughter go out the next day for cupcake mix, and yes I'm ashamed to say, a cupcake pan.  What I'm just started to get into my baking skills. :-) Anyway, I bake up a batch, and spend almost an hour playing around with my new toy. Feeling very proud of myself, I set the beautiful cupcakes on the counter and head off to give our son his bath while my hubby gets his room picked up.  After his bath I'm headed to the kitchen to make him his night time tottie (don't worry it's just warm milk), and I see it.  An entire dozen cupcakes gone! I whirl around ready to gripe at my hubby and find him with the same shocked face as me.  All of a sudden I look down and see our 90 pound Rottweiler Harley starring at us.  No sooner then the thought formed in my head, "No he didn't" the dog burped!  I mean the kind of burp to make a mother proud!  I just stand there in the middle of my kitchen not knowing whether to cry or laugh over my beautiful cupcakes while my hubby chases the dog outside saying something to the affect of, "After everything mommas done for you and this is what you do to her?"

Looking back now, I laugh my butt off. So, if you have big dogs, word of warning.  Put food in the microwave, oven, fridge, anything to keep them from getting to it.   But at least I know somebody enjoyed them, even if it was just the dog.

  1. I have a friend that made a "particular" dish the family couldn't hack down. So they threw it out the back door for the dog and the dog wouldn't eat it. LOL
