On The Twenty-First Day of Advent We Got a Bundt Pan and Hung with a Long-Time Friend

Every year I get a pretty nice gift from work. This year I got a Bundt pan and peppermint chocolate cake mix.

It was great seeing Alex. We definitely will need to visit him in NYC this coming year.

I was a little worried we had too much dough so we got out every pan that could be used for muffins. I was wrong, we only needed two pans. By the time we actually eat "breakfast," at least that's what Brooke calls it, Peanut has already finished most of his Organmix. I know, we spoil the little runt. Speaking of Brooke's fascination with breakfast, she will not eat anything that resembles lunch for her first meal of the day. So, even on the laziest Sunday, breakfast comes before lunch. As you can see Brooklyn really loved her muffin-fast -- even if it was already 1 p.m. While I finish up some dishes Brooke cleans the kitchen.
