Remember the other day when I said I was going to try to make the Tunnel of Fudge cake again, except this time I would not forget the brown sugar? I did try again. The second attempt was for Duncan’s birthday party with friends. A photo: 
This isn’t an attempt, dear reader, to extort validation from you, because I already believe this photo to be gorgeous, and you won’t change my mind if you say otherwise. BUT when isn’t a picture worth a 1000 words? How about when you want to tell a sad tale about how incredibly ugly something turned out and the picture makes it seem otherwise?
Amelia’s regional bee was Saturday morning. It was one of the largest spelling bees I’ve ever seen.
This is a picture of Amelia that I took shortly after she learned that she had been passed to the next level of swimming. I think it may have been her eighth try. For more background on her epic achievement see my previous post.
(This photo of Duncan is not recent, but it captures something that seemed relevant).
Pdad was out of town again. . .
The good news: If I lock my keys inside the minivan, it takes only a few seconds for a locksmith to pop the door open.
The bad news: my vehicle is easier to steal than I ever would have imagined! It’s a good thing big boxy people carriers aren’t in high demand.
I have no time to post, but:
a) I think my blog is finally working properly for the first time in a week! Hooray!
b) Did you notice that the header, button, navbar and title fonts all match for the first time in the existence of this blog? Hallelujah! The previous close-yet not matching-ness was very disturbing. Many, many, many thanks to Pdad without whom this feat would not have been possible. He fixed what my paid helpers did not. Perhaps I should put credits for him at the bottom of the page!
