No, not me, but I am not very far behind! It's my superman husband! Sons are both coming in from out of town for the weekend to help us celebrate. We'll have a low-key bash---lasagna, garlic bread and salad tonight; Royals game tomorrow night; a nice restaurant of his choice Saturday night. Plenty of fun gifts and this yummy cake:

I'm only a couple of months late in saying Happy Birthday! That's a great milestone to hit. 47 years is a nice long time, but not nearly long enough. =)
Thanks for sharing the video! It looks delicious to me..... can we use fresh milk/ regular milk instead of using buttermilk? :) visit website on steelhead fishing
