It's time to face the stuff.
*sigh*
I didn't get as much as I would have liked to get done. What's more, it's supposed to storm tomorrow, meaning the kids will be inside. And I was looking forward to the livingroom actually staying clean.
Yesterday, we celebrated my son's birthday at the hotel with my parents. They're staying at that hotel until their house is ready on their land. They have had some
problems with the property that they wanted, but it seems that as of yesterday, they are definitely getting it. So now, it's a waiting game.
Anyway, I had thought that I would try this dessert from Hannaford, a grocery
store nearby. I'm not too crazy about store-bought cakes. They're usually too sweet. So I bought a smaller sheet cake for tradition's sake, and then some sort of dessert called "raspberry mousse torte".
I won't justify it by calling it "mousse". It was crap. Not to mention that with the little I had, I had a HUGE sugar crash. It almost tasted like cool whip with some sort of flavoring that I guess was supposed to be raspberry. I wonder if any of the people who came up with this stuff actually knows what raspberry tastes like.
Ugh.
It looked good anyway. But next time, I'm buying from the local bakery here in town. If there is a next time. It'll be a while before I forget this episode. Serves me right to give into that "just this once" voice. I need a mental gun to shoot that mental voice once and for all.
