“Let them eat cake.” Marie Antoinette
Tomorrow is Baby Girl’s second birthday party. We are expecting upwards of 40-60 people/kids to show up. So we need lots of food, and lots of cake! One of my talents is Cake Baker/Decorator. I used to do custom wedding cakes and special occasion cakes . . . but haven’t done if for money for many years. I now mainly do it for family special occasions. I’m prepping the cake here . . . theme is Bubble Guppies. I’ve enlisted the help of my husband, who will create the characters out of icing. They won’t go on the cake until tomorrow morning before the party. It’s a lot of work to bake and prep the cake, especially when you’re making it to serve that many people. Cupcakes too! So – tomorrow you’ll get to see the final result of what I’m working on here.
Happy soon to be birthday, Baby Girl!
“Do you know the Muffin Man?” from the movie Shrek
Mmmmmmmm . . . . baking this morning . . . using up all the zucchini goodness from the garden. I took this shot with my D7000 on a tripod with the oven light on. Can you see me? Gonna freeze me up a bunch of these bad boys to enjoy in the months to come. I did a triple batch of the Zucchini Bread recipe, but made muffins. I did a tray of mini muffin bites as well. Tomorrow I’ll post a picture of the Chocolate Zucchini Brownies that are in the works.
