MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! A Collection of What is Going On in My Life

Well I know you all are wondering why I am posting at 1 p.m. but here is the low down. I had the WORST 24 hour flu bug I have ever had! That is why I am not at school cause I don't think that they would appreciate me coming and getting them sick. No matter how much they love me;). So watch out, and don't worry, I didn't hold any babies yesterday at the baby blessing. Oh and I found out that I am allergic to Eggs.... shocker to me since I love eggs... its kinda sad. 

I threw up at least 5 times last night and man I wanted someone to just shoot me and get it over with. Again... Watch out. :(.

Okay, enough with the bad things and in with the new:

To start off, I have decided to give away something that I corner the market on for a Christmas Present for all those that I wont be able to give one too. ( I know that was a run on sentence.)

Lucky You! You get my beloved Apple Cake Recipe! 

So here it is:

2 Cups Sugar

1/2 Cup Butter

2 Eggs

2 Cups Flour

2 Teaspoon Baking Soda

1/2 Teaspoon Nutmeg

4 Cups Shredded Apples (Processor works great!)

1/2 Cups Raisins (Optional but I strongly suggest it)

1 Cup Nuts (Optional)

1 Teaspoon Salt

2 Teaspoon Cinnamon

 

Combine like you would a cake & bake in greased 9x13 pan at 350˚ for 30-45 Minutes.

 

Sauce:

1 Cup Butter

2 Cups Sugar

1/2 Cup Evaporated Milk

1/2 Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk

1 Teaspoon Vanilla 

Heat all but Vanilla on stove top for 10-15 minutes. Make sure it doesn't boil. Stir constantly till thickens. Add vanilla.

Do Not Boil!

Pour over individual pieces.

And Enjoy!!!! 

This is by far my favorite cake that I have ever had and if you know me well, I am not a cake person. If you have any questions please call me. 801-294-7557.

Another exciting thing that is happening in my life is this:

 

Yes, I am getting a new phone! And not just a new phone but a new BlackBerry phone! I have been forever converted to BlackBerry and I am pretty sure that I wont go back! I haven't had a phone in over 2 months due to the tightening of money in my house. But now I am getting on my dads company plan and I am getting a new phone as well. 

 

***I would like to say something due to my father. He is one of the greatest men I have ever known. He always comes through and always does the best for my family. I love him so much.***

Not only am I getting a new BlackBerry,  but I am getting a new plan and a new phone number.

So once I have that I will make sure to send out a mass text to everyone giving them my new number.

The downside is that I have to wait till Christmas to get it. But I am sure that I can wait:)!!

An Upside to being completely sick and horrid this morning was that I got over it and when I looked out the window, IT WAS FINALLY SNOWING! I have been waiting all November and all this month for some snow and it is here now:).

I am definitely a Winter Girl. Anything to do with December is my thing:) Not just because of Christmas or my birthday, but the feeling of just pure joy that fills me every time I hear a Christmas song on the radio or sing a carol with my family. It has been snowing since 9 this morning and now at the current moment it is 2:30 P.M. 

Have fun driving;) (He he he he - devilish laugh).

Last Minute Thoughts:

1. Technology is growing as fast as we do.

2. Water is the best.

3. Take about 2 Tylenol after you are sure that you are done throwing up your guts cause you will be sore after.

4. Take time to think about everyone and everything that helps you through the day and give thanks for it in your prayers. Health is a big one cause being sick is the worst.

5. Love yourself.

Love you!
