What I Ate Last Week – 9/12
Last week I made the chocolate cake I was supposed to make several months before to celebrate my son’s birthday. I wanted to do it because I had purchased ingredients for this… AND because I wanted to take my mind of the work ahead of me. This was a success. I am not saying that…
