283rd New Thing - Baked a Cake at High Altitude



I wanted to bake a cake so I bought some Pillsbury Most Supreme Golden Butter Recipe Cake Mix. I read the directions and it recommended adding 3 tablespoons of flour and 2 tablespoons of water to the recipe if you live at High Altitude (about 3,500 feet). I live at 5,280 feet but vouched out of the special directions. I think my cake came out just fine with the regular directions. If I lived above 8,000 feet maybe then I would have followed it. After my 13"x9" cake was baked about 35 minutes, I let it cool then poured Jell-O Sugar Free Strawberry Flavor Gelatin over the cake (mix hot water, cold water, packet, in liquid form). I topped the cake with Fat Free Cool Whip and a few cut up strawberries. The cake was delicious without cooking it the High Altitude way!

The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
