My Birthday and Teela's Visit at her Babu's

My birthday was May 10th. I didn't get to do a lot because my husband was working, but here is a recap of my day.

Here is what my kids did: Jaedan made me breakfast in the morning. He made me a breakfast burrito with sauteed green peppers, potatoes, and cheese. It was very yummy! Delbin gave me a necklace he made and some pieces of really neat pottery he found to make a mosaic with. Teela came home from visiting her grandparents, Babu and Papa, and she got me a small pretty fabric gift bag and made me a card that she put in it. She also colored a picture of Pinky Pie (a My Little Pony) and while she was away made me the following special program called Teela's Visit to Babu's 2012...



My parents (aka Babu and Papa to my kids) took me shopping at Ross Dress For Less and I purchased 3 awesome shirts, a beautiful long missoni skirt and a Wilton Mini Rectangle Pie Press with money allotted for me from my husband for my birthday. I also received a very nice dress also from Ross Dress for Less from my parents.

After shopping for my birthday we then had a late picnic dinner with BBQ chicken and potato salad. My mom brought her yummy homemade cinnamon rolls that I ate this morning for breakfast :) I also received a $10 Amazon GC (just another great perk for being a Purex Insider) that came on my birthday from Purex in the mail (actually for Mother's Day, but a very nice treat anyway). My other gifts were a pretty Shamballa bracelet and a bronze floral deer necklace.

I received a "Sweet Spring Treats" prize pack that included one VIP coupon valid for a free Betty Crocker product, in addition to a Wilton Easy-Flex silicone 9 X 1 1/2" round baking cake pan (oven safe to 500 degrees, freezer, fridge, microwave and dishwasher safe), stainless steel mixing bowl, oven mitt, Betty Crocker mixing spoon, and a $25 Safeway gift card for being part of MyBlogSpark to review and keep for free. I got a single serve microwaveable Betty Crocker Warm Delights Molten Caramel Cake with my coupon. I was surprised that the coupon wasn't for something that I could have used my new silicon baking pan, stainless steel mixing bowl, oven mitt, and Betty Crocker mixing spoon with. I guess they figured I would buy something to make with them from the Safeway gift card. At any rate the Betty Crocker Warm Delights Molten Caramel Cake was very good! My kids were giving me the evil eye because it was a single serve dessert and I wasn't sharing :) The picture on the box it comes in shows a neat application of the gooey caramel. I just couldn't accomplish this with the packet of caramel that it came with. That being said it baked very nicely in my microwave and in a minute 15 seconds (plus the 5 minutes to cool time...don't forget this step or you will be sorry) I had a yummy rich dessert without all the mess and cleanup. The cake was moist and delicious and the caramel made it even better!
