(plant) Babies!

















I received this succulent plant years and years ago from my friend Carina.  It was part of a magnet souvenir from a trip she took to the Southwest.  Somehow, the plant never died and instead grew steadily.  However, every few years, after a cycle of being robust and happy, it gets on the verge of dying.  But this little plant is extremely resilient and it eventually bounces back and starts growing babies all over again.  Hurray!

Sweet, sweet Bakers Square French Silk Pie. 
We ate it all. Sometimes for breakfast.

You have to love the ridiculousness of this cake.


Peppermint Bon Bon! 
I think MN is the only place that calls it that.
To everyone else it is mint chip.

Many hours of my childhood were spent here.
