The hubby took me a day before my birthday out for a yummy Chinese lunch...we had beef soup dumplings for appetizers and I had Kung Pao chicken with steamed white rice...not pictured was his dish of crispy fish.

The hubby bought me French pastries for my actual birthday..they were amazing! Macarons, mini Framboise cake and raspberry cream cheese cruffin. My lovely coworker surprised me with a vanilla cake with chocolate, whipped cream and strawberries..very yummy!

My little family and I had a fun day at the pumpkin patch today and when we got home I baked homemade vanilla cupcakes with homemade Halloween themed whipped frosting and sprinkles... Meet Charley my step-daughter... What a cutie! I'm glad I came into this thread and saw it (finally!) - she's adorable!

A coworker is having a baby girl, and her theme is Owl Always Love You, so we did her work shower with lots of owl decorations. I made the cake, and then my gifts for her were also owl-themed. I tried matching it to some of her bedding. I wish I had more time to make it perfect, but it was fine enough for a work party. The little owls are made from cloth diapers, and the big owl is a "diaper cake" type of thing, with it's ears/wings made from her carseat cover she registered for.

I had some zucchini that was getting some blemishes so decided to make zucchini bread. I don't know if it was the cloves, cinnamon, or vanilla, but it smelled so good while it was baking.

I love zucchini bread! I wish my plants would get to producing so I can make some. waywyrd, I know nothing about gardening and really kill most plants that I try to grow so I have no idea when zucchini growing season is! I'm probably one of the few Italian-Americans who doesn't grow her own tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, etc. Heck, I even kill basil plants b/c I never remember to water. My husband's brother lives a few blocks away and used to have a garden. Man, I miss his home grown tomatoes and fragrant basil.

Let's see if I remember - green zucchini is a winter squash and yellow zucchini is a summer squash although both seem to grow during the regular season. One of my friends planted green zucchini and it took over the part of the garden the pumpkins misses.
