We are going to friends' for dinner tonight and I was in charge of bringing dessert. Steve works all weekend, so Wm and I walked to the store and got all the stuff to make the vegan chocolate cake that Wm LOVES. We walked home and painstakingly made the cake. It was all done, I was taking it out of the oven, then this happened...

| Yup. I dropped it. |
I was quite sad - and Wm thought it was hilarious. So I then decided to invent "Cory's Mudslide Cake." The frosting is melted chocolate chips and coconut cream - when it's melty it's totally liquid. Then it sort of solidifies into a mousse-like consistency. So I salvaged what cake I could, roughly chunked it up, and mixed it with the liquid frosting. When it sets, it should be like a mousse-y cake-coction. It won't be pretty…but it will be delicious. And I am totally pretending like I did the whole thing on purpose when I arrive with it this evening.

Wm and I also went to Target because his lunch bag is disintegrating. He is currently OBSESSED with Minecraft (just like every other boy between the ages of 6 and 11). We found a Minecraft lunchbox and he found some weird Minecraft folding paper thing. He so sadly set it back on the shelf, I couldn't resist giving him an Easter Sophie's Choice. I told him he gets a present for Easter, but then the candy haul will be next to nil (he isn't really into sweets anyway) - so he could choose an early Easter present or candy on Easter. Of course, Wm chose present. I don't think he regrets it….

| Very pleased. |
It is GORGEOUS outside - sunny and 72. Next on the agenda is riding the scooter to the playground and running around like a wild man.
