Lemon Cake with Lemon Frosting

I haven't posted for awhile. I've been busy! I had two appointments this week, plus shopping after. Today was Jean Jeanie's birthday party. Prepped for that by making Irish Soda Bread and the frosting for the lemon cake my brother baked. Mom made corned beef and veggies for dinner. And then I had to smell the bread, cake and corned beef all afternoon. :) Then we played cards and watched 2012. I really liked the disaster sequences, but the rest of the movie was just so-so.

In my convoluted way I got two friends to give me their opinion on my first short story for Prehistory. I should have just went with it, but here it is a week later and I have editing to do before I turn it in. Writing is just not a priority for me right now. I want to kick myself and get my butt in gear. It won't work though. I guess I need to find another way to motivate myself.

What I have been doing in my spare time: finished the orange and brown afghan/throw for my mom, including weaving in the ends, so totally done. Yay! I embroidered the other peaches on the fruit-themed floursack towels. Now all I have to do is the green border on that one, then the first four are all done.

Any excuse will do for me to throw a party. I'm an inveterate hostess extraordinaire. No doubt about that! I have Ancient Rites homework to do tomorrow as well, the final for this section. Well, that's all for now! Bye
