Okay.....who ate my cheesecake?!

Not even ten minutes after I hid a single serving of chocolate cheesecake, did I open the trash compacter to view the empty carton. I was saving it for my "stress" food and my son ate it! Little does he know how a woman needs her chocolate! We live too far from the nearest grocery store to just go out a buy another piece, but my son knows to ask first now.

The pattern I used was actually a free pattern for a child's scarf and hat. I just adjusted my length to about 62 inches long.
