Should I or Shouldn't I Bake a Cake

Happy Thursday Everyone! we're back to winter after a beautiful day yesterday. Temperatures dropped and it's cold, Snow coming later on, followed by ice/sleet and then rain. Guess we're in for a whole bag of tricks from Mother Nature but hopefully when the rain comes it will just wash away everything that has fallen on the ground beforehand. Otherwise we'll just get more ice if it freezes and then it will be a huge mess. Tonight we're having pasta so I'm making a big batch of marinara sauce in my crockpot. It's so easy peasy and I love having enough leftover to freeze for other meals. I really want to bake a cake today but I'm having an internal battle with myself. The devil on my shoulder says "we need cake" while the angel on my other shoulder says "we don't need all those calories". Right now it's a toss up who wins I try not to eat too many sweets but there are days when my sweet tooth just begs to be fed. My daughter isn't much of a sweet lover. She prefers chips, nuts, pretzels etc whereas I like cake, cookies, ice cream. So if I bake a cake it's doubtful she'll eat much if any. Maybe I could bake the cake and give half of it to my oldest daughter and it would get it out of the house OR I could cut it into slices and freeze them. Decisions, decisions Anyway, it's time for me to have my breakfast and get away from the computer for awhile. I'll be back!!
