a cupcake

• Our O'Brian is 7 today. He's wearing his green - so don't pinch him
• These are the cupcakes he brought to school. Next birthday I'm ordering fun cupcake liners - I checked several stores and couldn't find anything in a nice bright whimiscal non St. Patrick's Day themed green. 
• This is my 'something I ate' photo. I've taken a lot of the photo assignments - again, just need a moment to organize and share
• The cupcake recipe was from the BHG Cupcake special edition that I picked up at Costco on Wednesday.
• I woke up this morning and biked 9 miles. I've not stopped since - this morning feels busy and rushed
• The kids never get tired of waking up to green milk on St. Patricks Day. 
• Greg is in Chicago - again, but should be home this evening. 
• The teenager is also working today. This looks like a good early spring for his landscaping hours.
• Uncle George came over last night and played guitar for us for a couple hours. It was good. 
• I refused to make leaded coffee though as it makes it harder for me to sleep when Greg is gone - so I was glad to get a text that George made it home safely on my weak unleaded coffee. 
• I slept well. 
• I have so many posts to share, I'm only looking for time to post and share them
• If I thought last week was busy, that's only because I'm avoiding looking at next week. 
• Does anyone know if they do on the spot blade sharpening at the rink? I found Wendy's skates - but they need sharpening for sure. 
• It's supposed to be 77 today. Is that insane, or what?  My lilac bushes are filled with buds. All four of them. 
• Our dinner to Red Robin for Brian's birthday went well, although I swear we have a knack for getting the in training waitresses. 
• That's all I have time for right now....... more this evening. 
• Happy Saturday!
