Someone celebrated a birthday. Nicole requested ribs, baked beans, and fresh pineapple for dinner with Mississippi Mud Cake for dessert.
Somehow I managed to mess up the cake. Really mess it up!
Actually the truth is while making the frosting I had the bright idea of cutting back on the amount sugar, after all it called for an ENTIRE box of confectioners. Not to mention the two cups of sugar that was already in the cake. I guess that can be expected from a Paula Dean recipe. Anyways, because there wasn't enough sugar to make the topping solidify it ended in a soggy gooey mess.
So after Rachel's competitive swim training we ran to the store and searched for a replacement (Nicole did not know this).
We decided she should have her very own pint of Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough.
She was a very happy birthday girl!
