Hello Sunshine!
Windy but gorgeous day we had today. Spent half hour outside, sunbathing with the boys. I still don’t feel 100% well but at least no bed resting for me today. I did nap though. Love naps ?
Throughout the day I could see so many passerby, families with dogs, couples with dogs, kids with bikes, and for sure the neighborhood started gardening, cleaning their front yards and whatnot. Yep. I spied with my four eyes ? From the comfort of my living room. I wasn’t bed resting, but I did lounging under my throw blanket, looking outside my window ?
Sadly, now we are having a cloudy evening. Forecast says it’s gonna rain. Meh.
How was your Sunday????
For today’s recipe, I have a nice bundt cake to share ? Great as is, superb with the glaze.
