A break in the weather


   Laurie mentioned that Canada was the coldest place on the planet this past  Friday.  No wonder we were all shivering and in hibernation mode!  There was a break in the weather on the Saturday.  M, K and I decided to splurge and have brunch at Panera Bread. I had the new ham and gruyere breakfast sandwich as pictured:

Panera Bread Ham and Gruyere
All too soon it went cold again.

We've been eating cake this week. K was complaining there's no 'good' food in the house lately, such as cake and potato chips (right!)  M decided to go out and buy some chips and cake. We decided to get a white 'birthday cake' type of cake with frosting, all decorated. M had them write 'College Bound' on it. K was tickled pink. He even asked for a rosebud on his first slice. Well, let's hope College becomes a reality anyway! I asked M why he had to buy 3 bags of salty chips. He said it was a special when you bought 3 bags! What could I say, lol.

If it were up to me, I'd stay inside all winter and go officially into "hibernation". And eat cake until springtime.
So I can complete relate :)

Funny you mentioned cake, as today I plan to bake a chocolate cake with milk chocolate frosting -- all from Pillsbury! Lol. We never buy chips anymore, as we both have high blood pressure.

It's funny that I'm feeling a little chilly even in Hawaii though no where near what you guys are suffering on the mainland. This looks mighty yummy!
