Midnight cake

I was bored this afternoon so I looked through Matt's Cake Doctor book and found a recipe for Midnight cake. It was easy and came out great.
1 box Dunkin Hines butter fudge cake (because I had one in the pantry)
1 cup sour cream
3 eggs
2 tblsp. Vanilla
Mix well and pour into your oiled and floured pan (your choice of style)
I went with the 9 x 13 sheet pan

375 for about 35 minutes

I made butter cream frosting.

Yum!

My Wii age is 27 today. That's right. It reminded me that I am still obese but that my flexibility and balance and improving rapidly. I have all the yoga but 3 open and today I got the Free Step aerobics game. Its cool because the wiimote makes noise so you can watch regular tv for 10 while you walk to the beat. It got my heart rate up and I could feel it in my hips from taking the step up onto the fit board. I also got the lotus balance game which I mastered on the first try. You have to sit still for 90 seconds. Ha ha no problem for a couch potato like me! I also lost a tiny bit of weight. I would probably lose more if I didn't make cakes!!

Oh I think I got the bridal hair thing sorted. We are going to look so cool!

The dog just plopped down on my foot so it must be time to end.

Pumpkin cake

Made this today. Yum.

I read about it somewhere on the Net but didn't bookmark the site so I had to wing it.
I used a yellow cake mix, one can of pumpkin and two tablespoons of smart balance. The glaze is sugar and butter. I baked at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. I used a silicone bundt pan.

We got the wii fit on black Friday. We opened it last night (don't tell McKenzie!) and tried it out. Well I am hooked already. We did 30 minutes each last night and I have already logged 102 minutes today. My wii age started 41. In one day it went to 35. Yay! Matt and I played this morning before he went to work. Matt likes the games, I like the yoga. I suck at the balance poses but did great on warrior and sun salutation. We set weight loss goals so I will let you know.

We decorated the tree yesterday. McKenzie did most of the work. It looks great! I have more to do to get the house ready. Lights outside and garlands up. Ahhhh Christmas.
