Passing the Time........

So, I must admit that I have never baked a pound cake before! Pound cakes have always been very intimidating to me for some reason. I usually only just bake boxed cake mix. However, I was volunteered by my dear, sweet husband to bake a Sour Cream Pound Cake. With a little guidance from Rhonda in finding a Paula Deen recipe I decided to give it a whirl.....What's the worst that could happen?!?! Any who.....it turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. AND.....It tasted pretty good too! I have probably already gained five pounds!




I have also just finished the book "Redeeming Love". Wow! What a great book! I could not stop reading (except when Annabelle demanded my attention). This book was truly moving and such a wonderful story!



I have also been doing a few projects around the house. I have updated the mantel with a brighter look.



Rhonda had gotten white letters for Annabelle, but they did not stand out against the pale yellow walls in her nursery. I found stickers at Hobby Lobby and put them on the letters to make them stand out a bit better.


I have one more project for Annabelle's room. I am working on a picture collage to go above her dresser. Hopefully, it will turn out good. I have a vision in my head of what it will (should) look like. Soon, we shall see if my vision comes to life. Until Next time. XOXO!

  2. For your very first pound cake, you did a wonderful job!! It tasted good too!! Redeeming Love is a very good book, and it makes me think of my Redeemer this time of year and of the sacrifice He made for us on Calvary!
