Big Old Cake Eater

Last weekend we celebrated my sons 4th birthday, what a great day we had with our dress up theme. We made a play tent with underwater decorations, invited a heap of kids over and had lots of fun.

 

These are my kids with Xavier's costume my friend made for him. We reminisced the whole comic strip mags. The kids loved the cards with their special powers, and we chuckled about the speech bubble with "pow". The whole day was magic and the kids loved it.  Parties always come with lots of horrid food that I particularly didn't want to eat. So we made sausage rolls with lots of veges, zucchini and ricotta cheese mini quiche, cut sandwiches and as a treat I also baked some chips.

The kids loved the food and not one of them complained about no "party" food. Which brings me to the cake!

This was the most delicious cake I have eaten.  Vanilla Cake mmmmmmm

 

 

You know 10 weeks ago I would have eaten the whole darn lot and licked the plate clean. Ewww! Who does that .... Smiling and nodding ain't you?  :) Meeeeee

 

NOT ANYMORE

 

I'll tell you all I could smell was SUGAR.  It's a very strong sweet smell and I was amazed I could smell it.  Being a mother of 3 kids I've had my fair share of smells let me tell you, but it was like I smelt sugar for the first time.  Unreal.

 

Our bodies are so amazing in just this short time I have discovered new smells, emotions, and muscles I didn't even know existed!  I am feeling so great and motivated this feeling I never got from eating cake.  So now I can say that I'm not the big old cake eater I used to be, and my ass is showing it.
