Driving Miss Gerry

Today we've done a lot of driving around...literally. Dot is off to Cleveland Ohio for work today, and won't return until Thursday. Let's hope she doesn't freeze up there! T and I took Leonor over to my mom's house, then took my mom out for a drive, to get her out of the house. Then, we went off to a park for T to run around (that speck in pink shirt on the far side of the park is T), and now we're home.

We're busy making Valentines day Easter Egg cupcakes. What's that? I bought this pan that has 6 easter egg areas in it, similar to a cupcake pan but not. Never used it. The cakes are valentines, b/c they come with red prinkles you put in the batter, to make red dots in the cake. It will be interesting to see if they turn out, or if I, as usual, manage to screw it up. Problem is that nothing tells me how long to cook the thing, as its not a standard sized pan. Longer than a cupcake for sure, but how long???

OOOOOOPs.....Quick little looksee into the oven 10 minutes into this extravaganza reveals I probably shouldn't have filled the dumb sections up all the way. They're now kind of running together. Good thing I put a pan under the pan, just in case!

No fears, isn't there a saying to the effect of, "God looks out for children, idiots and morons?" If so, Somebody was looking out for me in the kitchen today. They've come out perfectly! At least, they appear to have, before we eat them. Who knows if they're done all the way through. That really doesn't matter, anyway, as T only licks the frosting off!
