S'mores Pudding Dessert

Enjoy 5 minutes of "me time" and treat yourself to this simple yet decadent S'mores Pudding Dessert!

Being an adult can sometimes be hard, don't you agree? All the responsibilities we have - a house, a car, a job, bills, and of course KIDS. Not only do we have to take care of ourselves, but we have to take care of our families too! With everything we have going on, we can't forget to take care of ourselves. Do something for yourself every day. Take a short walk, enjoy a bubble bath, sit in a quiet place and read a book for a few minutes. At least a couple of times a month do something really special like treat yourself to a pedicure or a massage, even go out to dinner with friends. You'll be a better friend, mother, daughter, or wife if you remember to take care of YOU. 

S'Mores Cake

Last week my baby boy, my first born, turned 17. SEVENTEEN!! How can that be? It seems like just yesterday I was sending him off to Kindergarten. A couple of weeks ago he started his senior year.... 

SENIOR YEAR! **gulp**

For the next nine months you can find me in the corner of my bedroom curled up in the fetal position. It's unimaginable to think that next year at this time he will be starting college. What will I do without him??

Anyway, let's not think about that just yet. Or I will start crying uncontrollably and never get this post written. And I know you want to hear about this cake.

So my eldest takes after his mama....he has a sweet tooth and loves eating all of his mama's baked goods. For his birthday I wanted to make him a special cake, and I wanted it to be a surprise. 

At the start of the year Food Network Magazine had a feature about cakes. A different cake for every month of the year! It just so happened that this s'mores cake was the August special. And I knew it was just the right cake for my baby boy.
