Sunday Evening: September 7, 2008

The weekend is over! It goes by so fast. A new week starts tomorrow. Ty will go back to school and clinicals, and I go back to storytime, grocery shopping, playgroup, the park, Barnes and Noble train table, and cooking 3 meals a day. I really love my life. I love being a mom and spending the days with my kids. I love to see them have fun. I love cooking for Ty. I always make him tell me how fabulous everything is. I love how excited Max and Mia get when Ty comes home. ( I am pretty happy happy about it too!) I am a very lucky girl!

We like to have dessert with our Sunday dinners. Today Max wanted cupcakes. I ask you...What are cupcakes? I answer...Something to hold frosting. I am a huge fan of frosting. Today we made Chocolate truffle frosting. It was chocolate truffle deliciousness!

Chocolate Truffle Frosting:

8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
2/3 cup cream
2/3 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon vanilla

Simmer the cream and the powdered sugar together in a saucepan. Pour over chocolate.
Whisk butter and vanilla into chocolate mixture.
Let chill 30 minutes.
