Well, Friday was my son's 14th bday, and he wanted a pirate cake. I wasn't going to buy him one, we did that last year and I decided it wasn't happening this year -- that and the one he wanted was about $30...

I'm a grandma, wife, mother, crazy writer, spaz artist and face painter who is a disciple of Christ, loves to cook and read and wishes there were more hours in the day...oh and dark chocolate lover!
