Why it's fun to be me....

So, my darling friend Liz-who is 10 years my younger and like a little sister to me, asked me if I would be her assistant in a cake decorating competition she was having at her high school. I gladly accepted. We spent all Monday night baking the cake, and dying the frosting, and cutting out the pieces we we were going to use to decorate because the rules said we'd only have one hour to do the whole cake. Tuesday evening, we showed up to her school and packed into their Foods Class Room along with 50 other people. We had a blast and she did such a great job. Here is the final product.


Last night, my friends Gygi and Tara came over for some help putting together cute lil' Baby Block cakes for a baby shower they are throwing this weekend. We cut and rolled and decorated for 5 hours. It was like adult arts n' craft night. We had tons of fun. Here are a couple pictures of the final products...


I am very lucky to have such fun friends!
