Do not tell Luke.
I'm having a surprise birthday party for him next Saturday. He'll be 31.
I am making homemade chicken and noodles for 14 people. As you can surmise, the main ingredient for homemade chicken and noodles, are the noodles. Homemade noodles.
Today was noodle making day. And I am a noodle making machine.
What you can't see is all the flour on the floor and behind me. I'm wearing only about half of the flour I threw around over a period of 3 hours.
The results of all my work:
For years I would put out a bunch of dish towels and dry the noodles on them. Today I had the brain storm of putting a cotton table cloth on the table instead. Tomorrow after I bag and freeze the noodles, I'll throw the table cloth in the wash and put it back on the table. No one will be the wiser.
You won't tell, will you?
One more thing, I ordered Luke's birthday cake from HyVee this morning. This is a cake he will not eat. Luke has never liked sweets and he doesn't eat cake, but his momma does. So there.
Anyway, I asked for a white cake with a Kansas City Chiefs arrowhead on it. This is what the woman who took my order wrote down: "KC", then she drew a squiggly triangle on its side.
What are the chances of me getting anything that comes close to a Kansas City arrowhead?
I say ZERO.
But, I'm a fan of cakeswrecks.com so I'm hoping that if/when the cake is screwed up, I can submit a picture to the website.
