The Time of Singing (and Praying and Baking and Celebrating) Has Come ~ Day 19

I've detected a pattern of late.
When I've got a lot on my mind, I bake.
And I pray.
I bake and I pray.
I pray and I bake.
And I end with a whole kitchenful of stuff.
It seems I bake a lot more these days.
Which, thankfully, means that I'm praying more these days, too.
I spent the whole morning in the kitchen.
I decided to whip up a batch of dulce de leche cupcakes.
(I added a teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter).
But I still had dulce de leche left (and more praying to do),
so I decided to bake up a batch of dulce de leche brownies, as well.

The end result was this:


And this:

And this:

Yes, my firstborn got his driver's license today! 
And this mama is learning better how to bake...and pray...and trust.
And we are most definitely stocked and ready to celebrate when he gets home!

Congratulations, Drew!  We love you tons!  XOXO

Hm...baking and praying. I think that would probably make my man, as well as THE Man, happy! :)
