Kay’s Little Can of Whup Ass

Have you come here from Kay’s? Are you looking for more pictures of our girl fight? sorry to disappoint, but I got nothing.

don’t let her petite, ladylike blondness fool you ….. she’s scrappy, she is.

Actually I do have one picture …… Our assigned meeting spot was right across from Penn Station at the corner of 31st and 8th. Look at what is there! Was that an omen of good things to come or what?

My laptop had a seizure and I lost my whole entry. I hate when that happens.

Here are the highlights:

  • cake I made for the 4th. Searching for this link is what put my laptop over the edge. If you’re interested, you can get the link yourself. It’s Ina Garten’s Flag Cake and was featured in a Martha Stewart Magazine at some point. It is delicious.

  • I have finished my Flower Basket Shawl and it is blocking. Surprisingly, I only used ½ a skein of the Schaeffer. I know I used exactly ½ because I weighed it. So did I frig it up completely, or did I truly only use 280 yds. It looks okay …… and more importantly, what to make with the leftovers? hmmm…..
  • I hit the 20 pound mark at my last WW weigh in. And though things have been downhill this week due to the presence of leftover flag cake, it is still time to name the mantra winner! Nancy our favorite foul mouthed Bronx Girl!

While I may want the cookie, I don’t need the cookie, fuck the
cookie…

  • This is what I am sending her

    you can have too much Flag Cake with Cream Cheese icing but
    can you ever have too much Pug?

We had a picture perfect day! It started off being overcast and threatening rain, but by the time their train arrived, the skies had cleared up to make way for one of those perfect early summer afternoons, beautiful blue sky and fluffy white clouds.

I spent lots of the afternoon holding a completely charming, always smiling Xavier …
