The angel food cake was a hit with everyone, and it lifted the way it was supposed to so imagine angel food cake taste without the rubbery texture store-bought cakes have. In short, it was amazing. Even my dad had 3-4 pieces over 2 days since he couldn't believe this is what it was supposed to taste like any other time he'd had it :D. I also had (naturally) 12 egg yolks to worth with, so I made 3 batches of lemon-lime curd to go with the cake and there was enough my mom and I could both freeze some for later use. My sister was happy as well, so everything went off without a hitch since it was one of the few weekends we've had no snow.

Speaking of snow, it's busy blizzarding right now and we have probably a foot plus on the ground so far. I lost power some time last night, but it's back and I'm crossing my fingers that it stays that way. I'm pretty sure we're going to break all kinds of records for snowfall since our winters have been so weak lately and this one is making up for all of the other years.

I made sure to get everything done that required going outside yesterday by 8 pm, so I'm good although I may try to dig my car out tomorrow so I can head to the beach and get some pictures. I want to make the most of my time here since if I do manage to buy a place in the next year it will be at least 15 minutes to the beach, not 5 like now. I'm pretty sure I'm going for either Brick or Toms River since they have semi-reasonable condos/townhouses, I'll still have access to NYC for my job, and most importantly, be close to my parents since they're turning 82 and I know time is limited for them.

So I'll keep stalking Zillow, and hope I find a reasonable place that has a garage. I don't think that's too much to ask.
