Caught in the act! What do you mean it's not you?? Hmmm....while we were sleeping someone rummaged through the pile of gifts....
The bizarre thing is: From the 50++ stocking stuffers at the fireplace, he picked the gift that is intended for him and chewed through the wrapper......Yikes - -how did you know?
Anyway, I took a day off with the intention of laying in bed all day ---until a video ad of Old Navy pulled me out of bed as they are selling $5 inner shirts (originally $12) - Fine!...one more shopping....
Enough shirts for you little girl....
So much for shopping today....I need my coffee break! Lately, I am craving for pound cakes -- thanks to my recent visit to Starbucks where I bought stacks of gift cards for my staff and admins. Hmmm...love the Starbucks pound cake selection at the glass counter- ---but $2.75 for a slice? Holy Moly - -No way - I'll make mine instead....
As always...I skipped the chocolate glaze topping as we prefer whipped cream on the side!
