Hockey Game Night

It happened in October

It was an interesting game and we had a good time. Dallas Stars lost, though. No wonder - their opponent was a Canadian team.

Greek Gyros

We have found a new place with good food. Since we enjoy having a gyro once in a while, hopefully, the place will stay in business for a long time. The restaurant is small, traditional, Greek, home-like food is served there. The gyro plate is so enjoyable!

Baseball Game Last Week

Last week Riders lost 3:1. It was fun being there anyway.

My Version of One, Two, Three, Four Cake

Last week I made that cake, following the Old-Fashioned recipe. 
I decided to give it a try as, frankly speaking, I had no 'cake from a box' to use.
I had not made one from scratch for quite a long time but the recipe worked well. Even though, I followed the instructions rather randomly.

I did not have vanilla, butter and nut flavoring and the vanilla extract either, I used lemon extract instead. I was afraid that the flavor might be a bit flat because of that substitution so I covered the cake with vanilla icing and added some colorful sprinkles to it.
