Last night I went by my mother's house for the express purpose of getting a recipe. Her lasanga recipe. God I love lasagna. It was in the old recipe book she made when she got married (the falling apart, food stains all over, best recipe book ever).
In the process of liberating that recipe, I found her spaghetti recipe as well.
This morning I was happy to find on the other side of the lasagna recipe the recipe of "Better Than Sex" cake. Whoo! That was another recipe I'd been dying to get from her, and I have it! Most definitely need to make it this weekend.
Better Than Sex Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
sm. box vanilla pudding
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup oil
3 eggs
1 cup sour cream
MIX WELL
Add:
1 bar German Chocolate (grated)
6 oz. chocolate chips
1 cup pecans (chopped)
Bake at 350 degrees.
Icing
8 oz. cream cheese
3/4 stick butter
1 box confectioner's sugar
1 t. vanilla

SPEAKER PHONES ARE THE EVIL
Seriously, if you want to use speaker phone, keep in mind that I am not going to talk to thin air for five minutes while waiting for your moronic butt to figure out that picking up the handset means I can finally hear you.
Also?
Speaker phones are stupid anyway, because your phone is your phone and you're at the mercy of whatever equipment you bought (however great or sucky). I hate folks who use speaker phone, because if they can't hear you (and that's their damn fault - really, I'm loud), they ask you to speak louder, and what good is sitting there yelling into the phone?
*sigh*
I need food. And time to sit and work without interruption on media monitoring. I hate all the proofing for the fact that I can't get my other work done for getting interrupted.

NASCAR
1 week until meeting Harvick.
Note to self - practice what you will say when handing him the shirt and the hat to sign. Otherwise sounds that resemble birds chirping will come out of your mouth and you'll be embarrassed. Something along the lines of "This shirt is for you. That quote makes me think of you - and don't worry, it's a good thing."
***
Also on the to-do list? Get a Care Bear for Vickers. I jokingly asked a coworker to scream for Vickers for me at the race (she heads there after work). She isn't sure if she can, as she has a Junior fan for a friend who'll be there (although she's much more prone to want to cheer for him since he punted Jimmie - it was an accident!). Then I said something along the lines of "But he's Vickers! They're both redheaded boys from NC! He deserves a Care Bear!" And...yeah. Then finding out she has an inside source to Vickers and could get the Care Bear to him, well, gotta buy a Care Bear.
