Leave a commentChocolate is an ingredient in mole sauce so, in way, it is a sort of condiment. I wonder, will being freshly pressed empty your bank account? I’ve never wished for someone to be broke before, lol!
I have thought about that same concept of how it would affect my “donation” for the month and being featured on SITS this month definitely gave me a sizable bump but I think the “fame” is short lived and people don’t always come back so I “think” I would be okay …….and if not …..I will blame it all on you!!!! 🙂
I’ll take the heat just so you can dance around your kitchen doing the FP’d happy dance!
Okay–sounds like a plan but I am not going to hold my breath….
Please don’t! However, the last time I did this, Kathy got FP’d. Maybe the WP fairies will listen. You never know.
Monday’s post is going to be a humorous one—and you are slightly mentioned so make sure you scan it !! 🙂
My mom made the most fantastic animal-shaped birthday cakes for all of us kids. That was our gift because our family was too poor for gift giving. Doesn’t matter. We didn’t know any better and Mom made our cakes so special. We always got to choose the design from a little booklet she had.
See—isn’t it awesome that our moms did that for us???? I tried to do the same thing for our boys because I remember how neat our birthdays were complete with the cool cakes. I bet my mom had the same book that your mom had!!!! Lots of coconut decorated ones—I think it might have been a freebie from a coconut product maker!!! I remember a really cute bear with toasted coconut all over it!!!
I love a good birthday party and have great memories of the ones we used to celebrate as children. I miss it. It’s not the same here, so far away from most of the family! But we are making our own memories, so that counts. 🙂
It definitely counts, Susi! I know you are making memories!! Did your middle get home yet???
Yes, she’s home safe and sound and had a grand time. 🙂
My mom would make ice cream cone thingies that looked like clowns for my bday. I loved them. Is there a technical word for those? Yikes, labor day is coming up.
I know exactly what you are talking about and I think the official name is “Ice Cream Cone Clowns”….hahhaha!
I need to change my answer to number 2 since Chocolate is a condiment LOL
I am glad that you agree!!! Thanks, Lucy!
I actually think chocolate should be in the food pyramid. 🙂 I agree with you Labor day and I think that when July 4th comes around that summer is already half over!
Oh we are birds of a feather if you think chocolate should be in the food pyramid!! Awesome!!!
There should be some law that makes chocolate a requirement for each day! 🙂
I’ll celebrate any day… with chocolate condiments!
Thanks, Jon! I think we should just make it happen and include it in the condiment aisle—a little strategic moving of items every time you visit the grocery shouldn’t be too difficult to pull off now, should it?
I’m with you on #4! I need a week to finish organizing and make it a workable space.
I am semi organized…..but it is all out in the room now because I am in mass production of cards!!! 🙂
any one who has any sense KNOWS that chocolate is a condiment! I mean seriously… little chocolate jimmies on … well everything! and chocoloate syrup in milk, and coffee, and vodka… errrrrr… maybe not the last one!
Have agreat weekend
All of the above!! !Thanks, Brenda!!!! Hope you have a great weekend too!
I like baking my kid’s birthday cakes, but I’ve never made them in any kind of shapes other than bundt cake shape. That must have been super cool! I never thought about chocolate as a condiment, it’s more like a daily vitamin to me ;). Have a great weekend!
I think it is awesome if you make cakes for your kids! They will remember that!
#2 brilliant.
that’s all 🙂
Thank you. I do what I can!
The cake is the centerpiece for a good party! My friend got a chocolate cake decorated in all of my favorite colors and bright for my 40th. t was for the big party they had for my 40th and she told me I didn’t get the OTH stuff because I was like a little kid turning 10 about the whole round number thing. ut speaking of chocolate, I thought it was a vitamin; kisses are supplements if you have a low-chocolate day. 🙂
I love that chocolate can be a vitamin!!!! Thanks for letting me know!!! 🙂
I have always thought chocolate was a food group.
I refuse to believe that summer has to end at Labor day 🙂
Okay—I will amend that statement!!! 🙂
Ok, you take the cake on the condiment response! Chocolate IS a condiment! How could I have not thought about that???
Haha!! You are welcome to take it from me anytime!
