Today is Caleb's 14th birthday though we celebrated yesterday as Wednesday nights are busy with Grandma-visiting and church-going. Caleb requested the following birthday menu:
* Beef Pot Pie (which we could barely eat - I somehow managed to use powdered sugar instead of flour!!!!!)
* Grilled Asparagus
* Yellow Two-Layer Cake with Chocolate Fudge Frosting (I managed to get this right - REALLY right.)
Chocolate Fudge Frosting (this stuff tastes like and feels like fudge after it sits)
1 stick margarine
2/3 C. baking cocoa
4 C. 10x sugar
1/8 C. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Melt margarine and stir in baking cocoa. Alternately add 10x sugar and milk, beating on medium. Add more milk if necessary for a creamier texture. Add vanilla.
For Caleb's gift, M. and I had a ball the night before going to a candy outlet and buying a big bag of candy for his special birthday treat. He had to dump it all out at once on the kitchen table. You should have seen his smile . . .
