It’s been ages since I made a cake

by

I was just saying on my main blog how I’ve been on a baking spree lately.

I haven’t really baked deserts in ages. I used to make lots of breads, and pastries but I haven’t done anything like that for at least five years and it’s been ages since I made a cake. So it came as quite a surprise this past Sunday when I found myself making a Chocolate Zucchini Bundt cake!

It turned out fantastic. I actually don’t think I’ve made a cake since i was in my teens! I turned it out on a plate and glazed it .. man it looked and tasted fantastic. I should have gotten out one of digital cameras to take a picture but by the time I was glazing it it was about midnight … and I was so tired!

My husband and I tried the cake after dinner on Monday night and this evening. I think i should cut it in half and freeze the rest … honestly … we shouldn’t be eating cake every night- even if it’s just a thin slice.





Thyroid problems?

by

I’m so tired this week. Yesterday and earlier today I almost fell asleep in the afternoon. I mean, just nodding off. I haven’t been this tired during the day or even all day long in ages!

Actually I think there might be something wrong with my thyroid. Well .. I know there’s something wrong with my thyroid, I only have half of mine left, but I think what’s left isn’t working right anymore. I have tumors in my remaining thyroid and I take thyroid hormone to keep them from growing, but I think I’m going hypothyroid.

I can’t tolerate being cold. When I go outside lately – even when it’s above zero – I feel like my hands are frozen or like they’re thawing out. Even if I was only outside for a few minutes.

so I have cold intolerance, tiredness, oh and remember I said that I lost weight in September … well I seem to have gained half of it back. Grrrr. Maybe I should be reading some fat burner reviews instead of worrying about my thyroid. LOL

Since it’s getting colder outside and I literally can’t stand the cold I’m going to ask my doctor to test my thyroid levels the next time I see her. I have an appointment in two weeks so that’s not too long to wait. If I continue to be extremely tired though I’ll see if I can get into see her earlier.

My happy puppy

by

My dog is extremely happy this evening. Last weekend when we were at the pet store we bought her one of those huge bones – I think they’re called Mammoth bones and we just gave it to her.

Midnight is lying on her dog bed happily eating away at the bone. she stands up every once in a while to scrape parts of the bone with her paw. I think she’s trying to scrape off some of the tissue that’s still on the bone. I’m sure within an hour she’ll have any tissue and baked on flavor off the bone.

I love seeing her so happy. Every once in a while her tail just starts wagging as she gnaws on the bone. Yep – she’s one happy puppy!

Just a lazy Friday night

by

I’m feeling lazy tonight. I’m watching TV with my husband and as you can probably tell if you read my last post I’m feeling a little lazy .. I don’t want to cook dinner.

I taped the movie The Runaways last night and we’re watching it now. It just got to the part where the band was in Japan and Dakota Fanning as Cherie came out in lingerie on the stage. It’s the beginning of the end for Cherie I think. Good movie so far.

I grew up with the music of the Runaways and Joan Jett so the movie is bring back some memories.

What to make for dinner?

by

I’m trying to decide what to make for dinner tonight. It’s getting later and I just don’t feel like cooking.

I almost feel like just ordering food in or getting take out – but that’s too expensive. We are on a major budget! I think it’s time to rummage in the cupboards. I’m pretty sure I can come up with something easy for dinner – maybe some pasta?

Speaking of cupboards … I think I have to clean mine out this weekend. Earlier today I was looking at the back of one of my kitchen cupboards and I found some weight loss drinks that a friend had given me a few years ago to try. They’re probably not good anymore and I don’t need them .. so I guess I should get rid of them.

Ok .. better make dinner.
