Birthdays!

Well, my birthday was a month ago and I failed to post then. But Steven's birthday was yesterday and we had a pretty good day!

We had the official birthday dinner on Friday: Ribs (hamburgers for me), homemade fries and mac and cheese. I made a Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Pie for dessert. It did not turn out perfectly but it tastes good!

I woke up before Steven and got everything ready to make Chocolate Chip Whole-Wheat Waffles. They are normally Steven's breakfast of choice. Steven was still not awake so I got to work on making him a card. It was simple, but he seemed to like it. I even wrote him a silly little poem to make it like a real greeting card.

Once Steven woke up, I made the waffles (which, for whatever reason, have been giving me a lot of problems lately. They are sticking a lot and the mix is not making very many waffles, even after I double it.) After breakfast, it was pretty much time to go up to the game.

The Gators FINALLY put together a non-stressful, offensive game. I don't care if most people thought it was boring.. .I loved seeing the offense do something for once. Even if the opponent was less than stellar.

After the game we came home to let the traffic clear out some and then went to Chick-Fil-A. Chick-Fil-A gives you a free meal on your birthday and we had coupons and a gift card! We both ate dinner for about $3. It was GREAT!

Now we are gearing up for Thanksgiving in Lakeland. Hopefully, I can get better at this.
