I have heard the stories of when you are pregnant you forget things and are flighty, but oh my. I tried baking that blueberry crumb cake, which I have made before, but I don't know what the heck happened. The 1st problem was I used Splenda for baking instead of sugar and thought it measured cup for cup for sugar, but nope you use 1/2 the amount. I was already doubling it so now I had to quadruple it. Well now I didn't have enough flour, so back to the store. Well at least 3 times I lost my place in the recipe (which isn't long or complicated) and had to rethink what I just did. So we ended up with one cake which I frosted with chocolate icing and a large blueberry crumb. Both tasted good, but it wasn't cake consistency and was soooo dense. Obviously I made some other mistake along the way, ohwell - everyone ate it.
Otherwise it was a lovely mother's day and although I am not a mom yet, my SILs got my flowers & a card, my MIL got me a bag full of Bath & Body stuff, and my mom got me a great shirt:
Chris surprised me with a gc for a pregnancy massage! Plus since I made a big brunch, Chris made me dinner (he never cooks) and cleaned up. It was really a special day :-)
