PurrPrints and The Gourmet Cupboard

First, I want to remember all my reader about Satori story (you can read all about her story here).
Today Satori had her surgery and I want to give a special thank you to PurrPrints for donating this cute postcard to me so I could sent it to that little angel at the hospital.

Now, passing on a lighter topic: A while a go I was the lucky winner on some chocolate pie mixes from The Gourmet Cupboard.
They arrived in the mail promptly last week.


Heavenly Chocolate Pie/Cheesecake

I must admit that I never made a pie before (I know, right?!?!) and I was very afraid to waste this delicious mixes, so I decided not to risk it and I used a premade pie shell and filled it with the chocolate delish! The mixes came complete with very easy to follow instructions, 20 minutes and voila'!

I think it looks good for being my very first attempt to make a pie, but the important factor for me was the taste: HEAVENLY is the right term!

I strongly recommend to visit The Gourmet Cupboard, there are a lots of yummy stuff, not only desserts but also dips, breads, soups, meals and beverages!

I think I'm gonna try the beer bread next!

Randomness Saturdays

Like *almost* every Saturday here it is!

♥ Update on Michele's mom health: She's at home now, still in pain, but on her way to recovery!! Healing vibes her way!!

♥ Update on Michelle's health: For the series, "It get worse before it starts getting any better" (right Kayla??), she got thrush all over her mouth back to her throat. Is going to clear up in a couple of days. I found some discharge on her pillow: hopefully whatever was inside her ear came out and she will probably not need any more medications or surgery. I will know more details on Wednesday.

♥ Update on Gabriel: He's doing great! He had another baseball game today and this time I took some picture (not great since Michelle was on my lap!)
I know I'm partial, but I think he's handsome like his daddy! You can see more pictures on my Facebook.

♥ My friend Allison started a blog: Mommy's Survival. She blogs about her story about being a mom, the circumstances about the birth of her second child (she's a young mom of 3) and reading her blog I found out she made a post about my cupcake with flower! I hope you all will enjoy reading about her.

♥ I won a yummy giveaway from The Gourmet Cupboard: mix for chocolate pie! Can't wait to cook it and to show it off (before it hits my belly! lol)

♥ And I leave you all with another song I love: No one by Alicia Keys
