Cake-a-Rama

Yesterday I needed more cilantro. Vince said he’d run to the store with me. Just as we were checking out, they announced that the next “Cake-a-Rama” was starting in 5 minutes.  The checkout lady said all you had to do was stand on a number and you could win a cake.  Vince didn’t want to do it but I talked him into it.

I parked myself on number 6 and Vince landed on number 12.

Here’s Tim, the nice assistant manager.  Chad used to work t this grocery store.  Wouldn’t you know it . . the girl with the numbers chose number 6 and I got to choose a cake.  Vince as begging for one of those gooey, nasty chocolate cakes.  He kept saying “this one looks really good!”  Nope, don’t think so!  I chose a white cake with some cherry filling.

Not homemade but not bad — especially since I didn’t have to bake it myself.

Thanks Wood’s Grocery for the free cake!

Stash Report – July 11, 2010

No surprise to anyone reading my blog this past week but I’ve done little sewing and what I had done was counted in the yardage used report last Sunday so .. nothing added and nothing used this week (unless you count tomatoes!)

Used this Week:  0 yards
Used year to Date: 355.5 yards
Added this Week: 0 yards
Added Year to Date: 148 yards
Net Used for 2010: 207.5 yards

Please read this about posting your link: Links to your main blog and not to a specific blog post will be deleted. The reason for this is that if someone comes along mid-week wanting to read a stash report and the link is to your main blog, they’re going to arrive at whatever is your latest blog post and then have to dig to find your stash report.  Most are doing it totally correctly but for the few who find your links disappearing, this is the reason.
