Re: O/T do you just ever have one of those days that nothing, and I mean NOTHING, gets accomplished?

Oh, I'm sure we've all had those days! Just remember, tomorrow is a NEW day and things will be better. And, it's Friday!!

Yes, I occasionally have days where it seems like NOTHING gets accomplished (usually due to my man's interference), but I've learned to not let it drive me crazy. I figure that as long as I've showered and brushed my teeth, then that HAS to count for something, right?!

 

On those days where everything seems to go wrong (we all have those), I always try to end it on a good note by indulging in something special. Sometimes it's a nice glass of wine (or two or three), sometimes it's a big slice of pound cake with a nice cold glass of milk. (I keep individually wrapped slices of homemade cream cheese pound cake in the freezer for this specific reason 😃) Sometimes it's a pint of ice cream......for supper 😍

 

Hope things get better for you!

 

 


I like the way you think! ;o) I think I will indulge in a glass (or several) of raspberry lambic. But yum cream cheese pound cake???? That sounds divine! Can you share the recipe?

@sailor_moon I didn't realize you knew him!! 😀  Lordy, he's wonderful, and I wouldn't trade him for anything, but he's the only person I've ever met who can cook a (simple) meal for two people and dirty up every pot in the kitchen. And I'm from south Louisiana.......we love to cook.......we have a lot of pots 😂😂

@HappyDaze raspberry lambic...NOW you're speaking my language, sounds yummy 😛

 

Girl, I didn't say that "I" made the pound cake, did I??? I've gotta give credit where credit is due, it's from my mother-in-law, I couldn't possibly make one better than she does. She keeps me well-stocked on pound cake and I keep her freezer full of gumbo and boiled peanuts......it's a fair trade 😀 I'll see if she'll part with her recipe for you. 

 

If I'm going to take time to bake a cake, it's going to have icing. I'm responsible for bringing either an Italian cream cake or a carrot cake to every family gathering. No cake, no entry.

@DoxieMomma HAHAHAHAHA! No, you did not say that, I apologize for assuming you baked it, lol! Hm but I am not sure which I'd like better, that or the gumbo and boiled peanuts!

 

Oh gosh I LOVE a good homemade carrot cake. I used to not like them but now it is probably my favorite cake, oddly enough. So do you have a good recipe for carrot cake?? Am I asking too much?? lol But I seriously would like the cream cheese pound cake recipe too. Wow.

 

Here, I will share some of my lambic with you:

Or goes as planned? That at every turn there is some obstacle in your way, something out of your control? I try to stay positive as much as possible but darn if some days I just feel like this:

@HappyDaze  Awwwww, thanks so much for sharing! That really does look delicious, need to try to track some down. 

 

See, this is how it works, once the weather finally cools off, you eat boiled peanuts (1) at the Friday night high school football games and/or (2) throughout Saturday afternoon watching college football games. The gumbo is for Saturday night when our Tigers usually play. Honestly, gumbo is good whenever, my man has been known to spoon the dregs of the leftovers on top of his eggs the next morning. 😛

 

I'm our of town right now, but I'll be sure to get you that recipe when I get back home. It's an old family recipe, completely and totally unhealthy. It's also the only way I'll eat carrots 😉
