Treasure Jar

Our two younger kids joined an online contest last year launched by Del HypoAllergenic Fabric Softener. And they won!

We promised them their own laptop IF they do what is asked of them which was fairly easy: to dance. Dance they did and we won, yipee!

They have been bugging us when we are going to get the promised gadget for them and I know it is gonna be soon since we already got the price money.

Kids these days, they don’t ask for simpler things anymore, they like techie stuff 😀

So I make cheesecake at home. From a ready-made box that we love: Jell-O No Bake cherry cheesecake. I made a strawberry cheesecake here  😀

My children love it and a cheesecake doesn’t last long.When I did this last week, I was doing some online research about construction and didn’t noticed the kids were “devouring” the cheesecake. They left a wee slice for me though.

I got these boxes from a duty-free store and they want me to look for boxes in nearby supermarkets. I already did and these stores don’t have these products. Where I got it from was more than a hundred kilometers away from home, argh.

I may have to learn how to make a “real” cheesecake the hard way. I hope I am up to it 😉

My colorful  Bracelet a Breloques which I ordered from and made by a good friend of mine.

I love it and so did my eldest daughter so she had me ask Gelli to make her a set with the colors of her choice: pink, black and purple.

Happy weekend!

The birthday is up and coming for my son and mine at the same day. Our only son requested that I bake some goodies to bring to school for his classmates. He wouldn’t hear of store bought goodies since he said he wanted his classmates to taste what I bake at home. I feel giddy of course that the son feels like that even at my lack of baking prowess.

I have been steering clear away from the tempting oh-so-good baked goodies for personal consumption but I can help get a small piece, and another and another especially when these are still warm.

I feel ze waist expanding and something tells me that I might be hearing whispers of get strongest fat burners soon.

So off to the kitchen to start the mixing and baking.
