latest cake

Busy weekend making cakes for friends. At least with friends I can try new techniques and if I really mess up they usually don't care...much ;).
The Transformer cake was for Ashley's boy friend. It was watermelon flavor which is a favorite of the kids, but I don't care for much. It reminds me of a watermelon jolly rancher and just to sweet for me.

The second cake was for our Karate Sensei. Lloyd has been studying karate with him since the late 1980's. He is a super guy and has a great family. We like to try and do something special for him when ever we can. His birthday happens to be on Veteran's Day so it's always easy to remember. His cake was a pina-colada flavored cake. It was pretty yummy!

Sod Party

Before...

Saturday morning family and friends came over to help us lay some sod in our backyard. It is so amazing to watch the transformation of dirt to green in just a couple of hours. What is it about a green lawn that just makes you feel good? Most of our yard is desert landscaping but this small square. I love it, Lloyd loves it, Tig loves it, the dogs love it! All around its a good thing ;)

After...

Here is a few pics of the work crew having some breakfast before work begins. I have to say thanks to everyone that helped... Devin, Morgan, Ashley, Forrest, Shayla, Josh, David, Britni, Grandpa Pruet, Tigone (the official grass tester) and of course Lloyd. What a great bunch. Thanks guys!

Latest Cake

One of Ashley's best friend from elementary
school likes to come over and make things
with me. She likes the cake decorating and
candy making. She is willing to help me
out if I need an extra hand. So this weekend
while her Mom was out of town she wanted
to make her a birthday cake. She had an
idea of colors and the polka-dots so this is
what we created this weekend. It is a lemon
cake with a lemon curd filling, glazed with a
lemon curd/icing glaze. The fondant is Satin
Ice (vanilla with lemon added to it.)

Happy Birthday Laura! Hope you enjoy
your cake!
