Baking a cake for 2 year old boy

Our monday started off okay in the countryside - we woke up 1 hour earlier than normal and it took about 1 hour altogether to go to the city; get L to day-care and myself to work. Not too bad, and besides I got to work earlier than usual - I can go home soon :) I only work 80% of my regular work hours so that's why I get to leave earlier. And I have to say I didn't sleep too well last night because I was a little worried how this morning would go. Why I always have to worry?

Today's a baking day - Luka turns 2 tomorrow! Can't believe it's already been 2 years that we brought him home from the hospital (as I gave birth to him, that is). So we're baking a cake and according to mister L, it needs to be chocolate. That's fine with me, I love chocolate :) Tomorrow, we're just celebrating the 3 of us. We'll have a proper birthday party for him later this spring with all the relatives but that wont be until we can get back to our apartment. That's when my husband and I want to bake a cake that looks like a car :) I might have to try it first before serving it to relatives - I'm not very good at baking. Any suggestions, good recipes to share? I found this one and I'm sure it'll be fine for a 2 year old as well :)

I also ordered a birthday present for L from Lekmer and I ended up getting this one
Hope he likes it! Too bad he wont get it tomorrow but I have something little for him as well.
He likes cars and even sleeps with his truck(s) - I'm finally getting to understand boys/men and the passion about cars :)

Down duvets on sale at Hemtex!

 Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I've posted anything but so much has happened: I switched to a new job, spent summer with my kids, got divorced and catch covid-19. Yes, things happen mixing good and bad things but that's how life works. Can't always choose what happens next! I've been so good at dodging the covid bullet but this time I could not and it actually me and my boys. I'm fortunately fully vaccinated so I'm good but the boys haven't but they're still doing ok and have luckily only mild symptoms. I ran fever for few days, my throat hurts and I have a semi-runny nose - but that's it. We're staying in the house for now so no super markets, gym, day care or school, and not really meeting any people. I'm working remotely from home and kids are relatively calm due to the illness. And since I've had more time at home and going through all the online stores finding the perfect down duvet on sale, I did find one at Hemtex .

Hey everyone! Summer is coming, believe or not, and many of you may already have plans for your summer vacation. Everyone travelling with kids know that you always have so much stuff with you: all the luggage, travel stroller (or two) and all those carry on bags - that's a lot with crazy, running away kids :) My opinion these days is that if you have even just one idea that can save your nerves (and muscles), take it :D I know, I've talked about these so many times so why not this time too? Lekmer has all their Carena Kobbe travel strollers on sale which are similar to Babyzen yoyo travel stroller what comes to their size but are much cheaper compared to yoyo. We're not sure what we're doing this summer since we go back and forth with our summer plans. We sorta wanna go some where warm (Bulgaria, Greece etc.) but then again we like Estonia so much that we're talking about going there with our car and my parents might even come with us. Either way, we just don

Mountain buggy duet sisarusrattaat alessa!

This post is only in finnish this time :) Mukavaa sunnuntaita kaikille! "Tämä postaus on poikkeuksellisesti vain suomeksi ja se sisältää mainoslinkkejä. Mainoslinkki on boldattu  ja vievät tällä kertaa Jollyroomin sivuille." Ulkona tulee räntää ainakin espoon suunnalla ja meidän pojat jo kovasti odottaa talvea, lunta ja sitä myöten tietenkin joulua :) Itse aloin pohtia, miten pärjään talven matkarattailla, jotka nyt olleet etenkin autoillessa eniten käytössä koska niihin saa britax turvakaukalon kiinni. Näppärää, mutta edelleen se lumi: meillä siis Britax b-agilen matkarattaat ja noilla renkailla ei kyllä yhtään huvita tarpoa eteenpäin lumessa. Keskimmäistä varten niissä on seisomalauta, joka olikin kesällä käytössä mutta jotenkin nyt säiden kylmettyä 3v tahtoo istuimen. Mountain buggy duet tarjouksessa 499,90€ Sen takia olen taas pohtinut tuplaratasasiaa suuntaan ja toiseen, ja melkein jo päädyin ostamaan käytetyt Mountain buggy duet v3 Sisarusrattaat hintaan 350€.
