First, the clementine cake was just okay. Nothing special, and a little heavier texture than I care for. I’m not sure the problem was one or more of the mistakes I made, or if I just don’t like this cake. Well, whatev. So it’s not bulletproof. The clementines did smell nice while they were boiling, though.<\/p>\n

Second, and more importantly (I have my priorities), all the teams I wanted to win in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs (except, you know,\u00a0Dallas<\/a>, and they were handicapped by not actually being\u00a0in<\/i> the series)\u00a0did<\/i><\/b>\u00a0win:<\/p>\n

Not-Vancouver \u00a0\u2014 \u00a0Won!<\/i><\/b>
\nNot-Pittsburgh\u00a0\u00a0\u2014 \u00a0Won!<\/i><\/b>
\nNot-Detroit \u00a0\u2014 \u00a0Won!<\/i><\/b>
\nAbsolutely-Not-San Jose\u00a0\u00a0\u2014 \u00a0Won!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

And here’s what I have to say about that.
\n<\/p>\n

Rich asked me which teams I’m going to be supporting in the next round (I think he might have been planning to place a few bets). Dunno\u2026nobody, really. Now that the teams I really disliked are out, I’m good. (Yes, I know. Professional sporting events don’t always bring out the best in me, okay?) Actually, I’ll be pulling for Phoenix if they make it through. (That series has gone to Game 6, which is tonight. Go ‘Yotes!)<\/p>\n

In the meantime, I bought whipped cream for the clementine cake, which then led me to make the banana pudding we had for dessert last night. So that kind of worked out. And we’re going to our first\u00a0Texas Rangers<\/a>\u00a0game this week, so I can focus on a sport besides hockey.<\/p>\n

All in all, a good start to a new week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
