Success. So the first of my 40 things to do at age 40 is bake a Cheescake. Go figure. Anyway made it for my wife’s birthday and it looked and tasted like a real cheescake. I even got real crafty and made it a chocolate chip cheesecake.
Move over Martha Stewart.
Day 47 and still going. The real challange will be in March when I will be deployed with the Air National Gurad for 3 weeks oversees.
Okay here are the rules. I am allowed to shoot until I least make one and then get to continue until I missed.
My first attempt was today, I made two in a row. Setting the bar low I guess.
P.S. I work at a Community Center and have unlimted access to gym.
