Remember the improved box cake mix recipe?
.

.
I tried it with butter pecan.
.

.
And while the cake didn’t seem to rise quite as high as it normally does …
.

.
My husband raved about the texture and proceeded to eat 3/4’s of it.
Honestly? I didn’t notice much of a difference.
.

.
I’m so sick of this AI generated nonsense.
.

.
As if.
.

.
This is a real cat.
.

.
Who jumps up to sleep on the spare bed pillows….
.

.
And is too lazy to shift when he slides down between the shams.

I found some old military photos when I was cleaning out a drawer the other day. That’s my husband in Beirut, with the remnants of the bombed Marine barracks behind him. He removed the bodies of six Marines from the wreckage on that horrible day.

Welcoming my guy home after a six month Med float in 1988.
Damn, we were young.

And talk about young.
My husband, right before he went to Vietnam.
