T-6: Red Velvety Thoughts

8-28-1974

Seriously, looking for the right red velvet cake decoration is the only thing I can claim to have accomplished today! Second Bestie's a great baker, she even worked in a bakery for a while. I was so glad when she volunteered, there's no one better.

I found a recipe, in National Inquirer, of all places, about 20 years ago. It was beautiful, with red coconut sprinkled on the white icing, so colorful. I love the contrast of the red and white. I have no idea where it is, but this one is the closest to it, even though it has crushed candy canes, instead of red coconut.

I made a big pot of pasta with ground turkey, baked some chicken for meals later in the week, earned some SwagBucks and made a few phone calls.

Oh, also, a ton of people added 6 Degrees of EJ on Twitter today. I wasn't sure why at first, but it seems related to RuPaul's Drag Race. Sutan, a friend from college won Drag Race in April, so I added alot of the queens around that time.

Need to be more productive tomorrow, I'm really behind on a few fronts.
