A busy day so far....

I've had a busy morning this morning. First off I got up and ran to the store early to get eggs. I haven't been to get groceries since I got back from the beach. The sky was gorgeous. I just love the morning sky.

When I got back home, I made a cinnamon Swiss chocolate cake. It's the Duncan Hines Swiss Chocolate cake mix and I just had about 2 teaspoons of cinnamon and bake by the directions. Somehow it fell a little, but it will still be good.

These icing is 1 box of Confectioners sugar, 1 stick margarine, 4 tablespoons of cocoa, 6 tablespoons of milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. You put the milk, cocoa and butter in a medium sauce pan and stir it constantly over medium - low heat until it starts to boil. Don't bring to a full boil, just as soon as bubble start remove it and pour over the confectioners sugar (I recommend sifting it first) and the vanilla. 

Pour on cake immediately while it is still warm. Serve with ice cream or my favorite an ice cold glass of good old white milk.

While it was baking, I was working on my sewing room. Going through things, I found this .99 cent bag from Joann's that I have never used. It started to go in the "next yard sale" pile.

Then I had a thought, so I cut the front off of it and using a cool iron and a towel over it, I pressed it down a little to reduce the wrinkling from being stored.

Then I went hunting for an old frame I wasn't using.

Now I have a cute little picture hanging in the sewing room

I also managed to fry me a couple of eggs for breakfast, clean up the kitchen mess from cooking and baking,  and do a load of laundry. And it is just 11:30 a.m. and I didn't get up until 7:00 this morning. Not a bad start to the day.
