It's windy outside again like it was last Sunday, but not quite as gusty. The temperature now is in the mid eighties, with a storm supposedly coming through late tonight/tomorrow morning to lend us cooler days. It IS too hot for this time of year---and I'm too cheap to turn on the central air, so we have the windows open and the fans blowing. Nice, but an overshadowing thought of what tomorrow brings. I do believe enough trees have fallen, yes?
Figure I'll concentrate on the cake I'm about to make (and heat up the house with!). Italian Cream Cake and it is a lovely masterpiece if I do say so myself. Coconut, 3-layers, pecans (and at $2/half a cup, had to skimp on them), buttermilk and lots of eggs. The egg whites get beaten to stiffness, so it ends up being a very light, yet yummy cake. We'll watch 'The Amazing Race' (the kids and I) while we indulge.
So, must go now. Will make barley vegetable soup for dinner as well. We'll all be fat and happy before I'm done with 'em. :)
