Happy 38th birthday to Paul yesterday! He is now almost 40!! We had a great day.

I made this super yummy fabulous banana cake! Here is the recipe:

Banana Cake

1 1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, beaten

2 cups flour, sifted
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup milk
1/4 tsp vanilla
3/4 tsp baking soda(added to pureed banana)
3 pureed bananas, very ripe

Cream cheese frosting: beat together butter and cream cheese then add sugar and vanilla.
1/2 stick of butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 1lb box powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions for cake:
Preheat oven to 350* grease and flour 2 9 inch pans or 1 9x13

cream butter, sugar and eggs. sift flour several times then add salt and baking powder and stir. To the cream mixture, add flour mixture and milk alternating, starting and ending with the flour. Add Vanilla and pureed banana/baking soda mixture.
Bake 9" for 25-30 minutes and 9x13" pan for 35-40.

My favorite new cake!

We got a new home gym for our birthdays. It is awesome. It was nice to get up and go to the garage and workout rather than doing my hair and makeup to go to the gym. We have the home gym(a completely awesome Hoist PTS-ENS3), the bowflex(donated by the Taylors) and the elliptical and the treadmill(this also donated by the taylors!) For a complete gym with so many options!

I trained 2 clients today at my house and have 3 tomorrow!

This is the year Paul swears to get in shape so if any of you know him and have his cell, every once in a while you should text him to see how it is going!;)

We are also going to be doing a January Winter Sale for dew-drops.com so if you want an email with this months promotion, please contact me!(dewdrop_jewelry@yahoo.com) It's going to be a really good one this month!
