Jack ~ Football Schedule ~ Batkid ~ Steve and Ellen ~ Baked Eggs ~ Pumpkin Cake


Good 35º football Sunday morning.

Didn't get much rain, maybe 1/10th of an inch, with the "storm" that was predicted. More coming in a day or so.  

Yesterday my grandson Jack was performing with the school band  in a "field show" at Ramona High School....

 
(Yeppers, you Alex and your mom all look alike!!!!)

 

I forgot to post the Thursday night football score. Brian was a happy camper, being a Colts fan!!! Today should be interesting... and then there is Monday night!!!
 

In case you missed the newscast of Batkid in San Francisco... watch this....Thousands turned out to make 5-year-old Miles Scott's wish come true. Miles is battling Leukemia and told the "Make-a-Wish Foundation" that he wanted to be Batman. The City by the Bay was transformed into Gotham City, where Miles busted a bank robbery, caught the Riddler and got the key to the city. Scott Pelley reports.
Thanks to Jen's brother Jimmy Schumacher for the link!


Today is a birthday of an "old" friend.... Wilsonite Steve Geon (LAPD ret) ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE!

Yesterday I was in a cooking/experimenting mode... I saw where Trish had posted on FB about baking eggs instead of boiling them. I took 3 eggs (extra large) put them in a muffin tin
,
baked them at 325º for 30 minutes, then put them in ice water for about 10 minutes
.
PERFECT! They peeled sooooooooo easy. Yoke was done to perfection! What a great idea! I will never boil eggs again!

 
 
Then I made a cake. The recipe I read said 1 box of yellow cake mix and 1 can of pumpkin 15oz. Two ingredients!
I thought it needed something else so added 1/3 cup soft butter and 3 eggs.
Beat the eggs with a fork, put all ingredients in mixing bowl and mix on medium a couple of minutes. Spray bundt pan with cooking spray, pour in cake mix, bake in pre-heated 350º oven for 30-35 minutes .. until top springs back when you press your finger on it. YUMMMMMMMM!!!!


PERFECT!!!! OMG it's sooooooooooooooooooo good!!!! Fluffy and just sinful!  Going to make this again using spice cake mix!
 
All I know. Happy Sunday. Nuff said. Ciao.
