This is gonna be a long post....so get ready to read!

Rundown of last night, today, and tomorrow.

Last night I went grocery shopping after work and spent $106 bucks...phew then went home and put it all away. I knew I had been asked to bring a dessert for tonights informal choir practice dinner so I knew I needed to make that and I needed to make dinner. First things first I made yet another pizza (I'm into these things lately) anyway I made a buffalo chicken pizza. Put ranch dressing as the sauce then topped with chicken cubed then sauteed in buffalo sauce put it on the ranch dressing then topped with a bunch of mozzarella cheese and garlic powder. It was DELICIOUS, best I have made yet. Ok, next I made my dessert, which I finally decided on my banana cake. 3/4 way through the recipe I read and it say "buttermilk" *panics* no buttermilk! Then I remembered trick, *take note if you ever need buttermilk for recipe and dont have any* Mix regular milk with a little lemon juice. It will produce the effect and taste of "buttermilk" My recipe called for 6 tbsp of bmilk, so I put 5.5 tbsp of milk and about a half tbsp of lemon juice. Saved the day. Well, last time I made the cake I remembered it taking extra long, so I put it in the oven for 50 minutes fully expecting ot have to add more on the timer. BUZZZZZZZZZzz and man was the cake done. I'm afraid I may have cooked it too long making it dry. So on the way to work I came up with an idea. I will pierce holes in the cake then make a brown sugar banana sauce and pour over the top letting it seep in to the cake then frost it with the cream cheese frosting as I normally would. I think that should make it nice and moist. *hopes it works*

Today...I get off at 3:30 hopefully. Need to go home and go see mamaw and papaw for a bit and get their coffee made and possibly clean up a little bit. Been two days since I was there. THEN I need to hurry home and vacuum and dust and clean bathroom real quick (megan's coming over after practice) then I need to hurridly make my frosting and frost the cake. However I guess after typing this, it would be best to make the sauce then put on cake so it can sit, then make frosting so it can firm up THEN clean my house quickly, then go see mamaw and papaw. I know I need to leave BY 5:30. I get home around 4:15. This gives me 1 hour 15 mins...maybe I can do it.

Tomorrow *drum roll please* SHOPPING DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get money YAY! I think I will go from hermitage to Rivergate to Hickory Hollow to Donelson! I don't know. Megan will be with me helping me carry my load! I'm so excited! WOOOOHOOOO! Then somewhere in the day, Damon said Wendy called and needed some help moving something so maybe I will go help him, who knows :) He's gotta paint earlier in the day while I shop. Maybe we can meet up!

And lastly, tomorrow night...I need to make another dessert for the childrens play Sunday night. We always have a informal dinner/buffet thing after the play (I say always and only been there two years) and Sis Viv asked me to bring a dessert. At this point I am undecided. I am thinking either a chocolate candy cane cake, OR a nilla praline cheesecake, OR Santas Cake. I will also bring the soda cracker candy...its SO good!

BYe yall, love you muchos and hope to see new posts on blogs soon so I can be entertained!

Yeah, It's a trick I learned I think from the cooking network or something. I don't know if you've ever tasted it. I know its not real big in the northwest, but oh man is it here. Some people like it some dont. To me it's got a REALLY funny taste. If I ever get pregnant I will probably crave the stuff! LOL

About the cake....that's not a recipe on the sauce part....it's a need to save a cake thing :) I don't Like my cakes dry.
