I made Fresh Salsa for the very first time a few days before SuperBowl Sunday.  Hubby and I loved it so much that there was just no going back to bottled salsa.  I divided the salsa into two, one for our little girl and one for Hubby and me.  I chopped one fresh chili pepper and added it to my and hubby’s salsa.  It was hot, hot, hot, all right that the words hemorrhoid cream started flashing in my head. Hee hee.   I made the salsa two or three more times since that first time.

Two weeks ago, I made bundt cakes for the birthday of two of my friends.  I’ve been meaning to use my never-been-used bundt pan bought towards the end of last year.

For Friend #1, I made a Carrot Bundt Cake with Honey Cream Cheese Frosting….

For Friend #2, who just absolutely loves chocolate, I made a chocolatey chocolate bundt cake, which I am aptly naming Chocoholic’s Dream Bundt Cake…

I’m pleased with how the bundt cakes came up.  If only I could turn this hubby into a successful home business. Then again, why not?! *cross fingers*

Didn’t I say it was supersized?  Hee hee.  This McDonald’s outlet can be found in Dallas, TX and is called the World’s Biggest Happy Meal Box. In a special show on the Travel Channel about unique McDonald’s around the world, this outlet earned a spot in the top 10.  It is unique all right!

The giant happy meal box is two storeys high and houses the playscape.  On either side of the building are supersized food items: fries, soda, Big Mac! Can you imagine if these were real?  One will need supersized slim pills to follow the meal. Hee hee!

You can read more about the world’s biggest Happy Meal box in my food blog:  HERE.

Yes, in this pic…what do you see in this pic?  I see BARBECUE…sausages, beef ribs, pork ribs and beef brisket.  This is the barbecue pit of The Salt Lick, where we had Mother’s Day lunch last week.  I have yet to write a review at my food blog about our visit to this restaurant.  But I will real soon.

Oh, you know what else I see in this pic?  The use of Colonix if people have one too many of these mighty meats.  Hee hee.  Please, eat in moderation.

My daughter takes after me in that she has has a sweet tooth.  Well, most kids her age do!  But since the Little Munchkin often sees me whipping up dishes and goodies in the kitchen, she often volunteers to help with anything, be it pouring or measuring ingredients.  So I indulge her.

Much as my daughter loves sweets, one thing she didn’t take from me is how quickly I get, uhm, chubby. At least, I don’t have to worry about her being pressured by peers to take diet pills.  *cross fingers*
