Another lesson learned and Miah's 22nd!



 It has been a very busy week. Lots of things going on. Bam! Before I knew it, projects due! So many little things went wrong but that is the GREAT thing about creating... You create even if it does not go your way! Well, here is the picture of the "wood flooring". I let this dry for a few days and the only thing I actually did in advance.

Another reminder to myself? if in doubt add alittle more.   I short changed myself when I rolled my fondant and ended up rolling it too thin which caused tearing.  Fortunately, It teared on spots I could cover.  What a relief!

Only in an Hour - Thomas the Train for Ty

Only one hour to assemble and decorate? no problem!
I asked Ty what cake he wanted he said Thomas.  After a stressful night, I did not feel like making the cake the night before.  So, the next morning, in between drop offs and pick ups from schools... We made this cake.  It took Ty and I one whole hour to assemble and decorate his 4th birthday cake.  I say, we did not do so bad considering we only had an hour.
