Chatty

I'm not posting a picture today. I just felt like chatting. I love this kind of stuff. I realize blogging is difficult for me though. I may need to be more consistent with it to actually get anywhere. I didn't bake this week and feel a little empty. Hmm...but I did eat at the Corner Bakery and found a dessert I want to try. Of course I will have to implement it into cakes somehow, but I don't think that will be difficult for me. I have a talent for seeing how anything can be used for cakes. So, I will do something this week and try to be better about blogging. Maybe then I will get some people following, even though that makes me nervous.

Lyrics

So, it was my friend's birthday. He is a big music fan. It's his passion/obsession. So for his birthday, I made a cake with lyrics from good songs I know he loves. It's the same cake as my mom's except I used regular buttercream frosting. Maybe you can zoom and guess the artists of the lyrics.

Mom's Birthday

I made this cake for my mom's surprise birthday party. She turned 60 and we thought that would be the perfect time to throw her first surprise party.






I picked wild flowers...from her garden. I'm not sure if they are technically wild if they are from a garden. But they were beautiful and she loved it.












I had my mom tasting it throughout the week as I made it. I told her it was for a friend and she gave her enthusiastic approval for it's taste. It is a yellow cake, yummy lemon buttercream frosting, with a raspberry/lemon frosting/lemon curd filling. I loved it. I took leftovers to school and got good reviews there as well.
