CUP • CAT • BOOK • LIFE
& Sometimes Cake
I have changed the name of my monthly The Saturday Soup post to:
CUP • CAT • BOOK • LIFE
The constants in life are my cups of morning coffee and evening tea, my beloved cat Zuzu, and of course books. The "& Sometimes" part will be random. It most likely will be a recipe, but might also be a craft, or activity. I will still have photos from around my city and thoughts about my life in general. Also, not having a specific day of the week in the title frees me to publish the feature anytime.
•
I am also going to include a section of THREE QUESTIONS for you about what's in your cup, in your bowl, and your current read.
•
There will also sometimes be an IN YOUR OPINION section asking what you think about my different blog and Bookstagram ideas... before I use them and waste my time on duds. Ha ha.
I'm linking up with THE SUNDAY POST, hosted by The Caffeinated Reviewer.
WHAT'S IN YOUR CUP?
Besides my usual coffee and tea I was drinking earl grey tea because I had chocolate cake for Mother's Day. I always drink earl grey with chocolate.
WHAT'S IN YOUR BOWL?
(favorite thing you had to eat this month)
Mother's Day Chocolate Cake!
WHAT ARE YOU READING CURRENTLY?
Shirley by Charlotte Brontë

Let me know in the comments what your answers are...
My traditional Wegman's Ultimate Chocolate Cake for Mother's Day. Three years ago it got smaller, two years ago it was more expensive, last year it was even more expensive, and this year I could tell they used cheaper cocoa and it seemed a tad bit smaller. I keep saying I am going to start having Baz make my cakes for birthdays and Mother's Days and I think it's time that should happen. Again I had him get cheap flowers to offset the cost of the cake.

This is what I want made for my birthday. Baz has a friend who is a fabulous baker and I think he will help him make this.

What are your three answers?
What a lovely gift, and cake.
ReplyDeleteWHAT'S IN YOUR CUP? Pepsi Max, because that’s basically all I drink

Thanks for sharing your week
A lot of people I know drink Pepsi Max. Happy belated Mothers Day! ☕︎
DeleteHappy birthday!! The chocolate peanut butter cake looks amazing though too bad about the decrease in quality of the Wegman's one. And what a beautiful and thoughtful gift. Okay questions:
ReplyDeleteWhat's in your cup? I'm drinking roasted green tea that I got in a Universal Yums box when they featured food from Japan. It's pretty yummy. After that I'm going back to Hint Water
What's in your bowl/favorite thing you've eaten this month: We went to J.Alexander last weekend and I got a piece of their carrot cake for dessert and it may be one of my favorite desserts of all time.
What are you reading currently: The Valencia Expat Club by June Patrick which I'm enjoying and about to start The Re-imaging of Thornwood House.
I've never been a fan of green tea, maybe roasted would change my mind. ☺ I love carrot cake. Now I want some! ☕︎♡
