yummy!

have been craving for chocolate cake for weeks now. we attended a birthday party last sunday and had some chocolate cake. but knowing myself, i need {have} to binge when it comes to chocolate. so, i went out there (on the web) to look for a simple chocolate cake recipe. came across ina garten's chocolate cake and i have been wanting to do PW's delicious baked fudge, so yesterday was a fine day for all these chocolate goodness.

frosted the cake with the leftover frosting when i made this last week. Mmmm-Mm...i couldn't get enough of the whipped cream on my baked fudge that i gotta have it on my cake too. :-D
and i can no longer bake unless i make a batch of my fave peanut butter cookies and ina garten's chocolate white chocolate chunk cookies. yum-oh!

now, to more yummy stuff - blog candies (thanks marix and timi for posting these)

a photo of love

i was taking pictures for my project 365 and it so happened that these random things in my kitchen caught my attention.

actually, i just finished baking and that's the reason why my hand mixer {still saving for that kitchenaide ;-)} was out.

this photo includes things i am in love with right now. bananas on a green plate. green water pitcher. green oven mittens in the background. my hand mixer with green buttons/controls. and JP's lego in a green container.

i love bananas. i love green. i love to bake. and i love JP's lego {a gift from ninang yoyin} because it keeps him busy while i do my housework. no 'mommy, dito ka. wala akong kasama' because of this lego. :-D

and one other thing i love: blog candies! carla is so generous to share some of her Making Memories Chloes Closet stuff to a lucky reader/commenter. so go on and visit her.

wow!

that's what i can say about Christine's retreat house. and i just envy those who are able see the house in person and get to stay there. the nicest thing about it is that it's a scrapping retreat house. you can scrap and relax (can you even do that? heehee)... enjoy a scrapping getaway. so hop on to Christine's blog for a chance to win a RAK.

and here's the link, for those who would like to see it. :-)
