I seriously wonder how many posts I have that are titled TGIF or some form of it. Why is Friday so delicious?
I'm still knocking on death's door with this monster cold. And am entirely sick of living on peanut butter sandwiches and McDonalds smoothies. My appetite is kaputz when I'm sick and I can't really taste anything. I tried to remedy that by making meatloaf and mashed potatoes from dinner last night. Adam said it was good, I honestly couldn't taste a thing. It just felt so good to cook again. Making dinner always feels like an accomplishment to me for some reason.
I whipped up Adam's birthday cake last night too, complete with chocolate ganache, which, looks phenomenal for my first time ever making it. He had very specific requests, including a cake inspired by the Boston Creme Donut that included chocolate chips in some way. Depending on the reviews I'll post it here next week.
I'm frustrated with Amazon. After ordering a birthday present for Adam on Monday and paying expedited shipping to have it here by today, it's still not here. Where is it you might ask? Well, it's currently shipping from Nashua, NH to Boston, MA and to Nashua, NH and so on and so forth. Hmph. That doesn't really work well when it needs to be in Cleveland, OH. Morons.
I'm off to guzzle some coffee, happy Friday everyone.

Ooh chocolate ganache on cake sounds delicious! I hope it tastes good!!
Expedited shipping never works for me either. Pain in the butt to pay so much more money to not get it in time anyways!

I live in Nashua, NH!!!!!! Random. Sucks about your package though I have been in that boat before. I hope it gets to you asap and if not I would definitely request a refund for your expedited shipping because that is rediculous. That bday cake sound scrumptious, I can't wait to see a pic!
