This weekend Ashley and I were able to redeem ourselves a little after the disastrous 'Tiffany Box' cake we attempted a few weeks ago. Because we are determined to improve upon our cake decorating skills, we decided we'd make another practice cake using fondant. And because we'd learned so much from the last one, we went after this one a little differently, in several aspects, and as a result, this one came out so much better. I was delighted to present it as a gift to the neighbors since the whole family is great (even the little boys rush to help me unload the truck when they see me come in with groceries and such). And they all gave a huge gasp and lots of smiles when I showed up with this one and once again, I totally ruled as the 'Cake Lady' next door!
I am a mom of 2, a grandmom of 7, a daughter, a niece, a big sister, a cousin and a friend to many. I love to cook and my newest passion has become baking and decorating cakes. I also love to travel. I get to do more cooking than traveling but have included some of both here along with lots of other stuff. This blog is about sharing some of the things I do and those that I do it with with family and friends. I appreciate you checking in and hope you will feel free to share your comments with me.
