Missing the Blog - Graham Cracker Sand

"I am so busy with all of this stuff...I haven't even blogged!"
"Do you miss blogging?"
"Yes! Blogging is important to me. I haven't even cooked real food, so I don't have any food to blog about."

This was a conversation I had early today re: teaching, selling AVON, helping with a fundraiser, family obligations, and generally losing my mind. I miss this blog!!!! So, I decided that even if I don't have a fab recipe to share with you, I can at least post something.

So...here is a pic of a cake I made for a birthday recently. I have no cake decorating expertise, obviously. What I was happy with was the technique of using pulverized graham crackers as sand. The texture was fabulous and the taste actually added to the cake. I highly recommend making a beach cake with graham cracker sand:)


Now...my plan is to seriously get back to blogging. I miss you guys...I miss cooking. It's time to return!

    Hi Angela! Mmmm! Great cake. Cake is our friend. Your post reminded me if a placard my wife put up for a while that said, "of all the things I lost I miss my mind the most"! Very funny. Hope life gives you a season of catching up, my friend. Ciao.
    And a Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
