It’s another fun filled Friday here at my cottage and I’ve got a million errands to run and yet here I sit…
at my computer in my jammies and slippers…or maybe it’s my pirate costume. I can’t tell. Anywho, I haven’t started my Christmas shopping which means I’m right on schedule and I have a birthday cake to bake this afternoon for my birthday tomorrow. I’m making my favorite…DEATH BY CHOCOLATE…it’s made with 2 lbs. of bittersweet chocolate, but I’ll be making the smaller version with only 1 lb. There are 3 layers of cake and 2 layers of chocolate ganache with raspberry…yum!!!
But first I’m going out to do a little antiques shopping. I saw a gorgeous cake plate at one of my favorite stores last week, so I thought I’d make the trip back this morning and see if it’s still there.
I’ll be sure to post my cake tomorrow and maybe the recipe…it is delicious!!! Until then, I hope you all have a wonderful Friday. Oh, my pictures are from a store in Orange called Country Roads…it’s one of my favorites!

Oh yes, by all means, a new cake plate for your BIRTHDAY TOMORROW!!! I ♥ the stamp you put over these photos...so perfectly YoU. Oh, did you like the little pink socks I sent? They are supposedly treated to moisten the feet.
Count down until SPC Ryan lands in Phoenix!!! @ 5:10 AZ time. YIPPEEEEEEE!!! **kisskiss** Deb
Oh boy a birthday! I hope that cake plate is still there. An early Happy Birthday to you Cori G!
Looking forward to seeing your cake after you bake it....but I'm concerned that you have sooooooo much left to do before Christmas.
Hope you get it all accomplished....a new cake plate sounds divine.
Merry Christmas
Happy Birthday sweet Cori!!!! Hope the cake plate was still there....
My darling I wish you and yours all the joy, love, hope, blessings, peace, laughter, miracles, good health and boundless wealth during this holiday season and always.

Loved the pictures and socks!
But the pic of you in your slippers is the best. How was your chocolate cake? Mmmmm
Happy Birthday Sweet Gypsy Rose!!!!!
Cori,
I hope you found your cake plate and a very Happy Birthday to you!
How is the Birthday Girl? You did not succumb to the Death by Chocolate cake did you? Did Mickey dance with you? Did they have a Darling Cori Parade with unicorns and rainbows? Did Milo come serenade you in his disco outfit? And isn't our beloved Ms. V simply the best!?!?!? **blows merry kisses** Deb
