cake class

Not sure if I mentioned this before, but some of my friends and I are taking a cake decorating class. Last night we decorated our first cakes! Here is how mine turned out:

It's kind of hard to see, but I wrote "I Love Dan" on it. 1. because i do. 2. because i thought it would be funny to dedicate a flower cake to my husband. and 3. i wanted to practice my writing (i definitely need to do more of that).

It's a yellow cake with chocolate pudding in the middle (Dan LOVES pudding). Next week I'm thinking I may try a chocolate cake with a raspberry filled center. Anyway, it's been a fun skill to learn, expensive, but fun! :)

Oh and in other news, we got bikes! Actually, we got my bike fixed and we got Dan a bike (one that is the right size, since he is so tall!) We are both planning on riding our bikes to work each day and it's also a fun leisure activity to do together. We just went on a ride tonight and had a great time!

Last thing- I'm so happy about the results of American Idol! Kris and Adam are the two that made it to the finals and they just happen to be my favorite contenders. Although I like Kris more :) I hope he wins!

Ok the REAL last thing, the snow shack was open on my way home from work today and I got my first snow cone of the summer! The End.

  1. The cake class sounds fun! And the cake looks great! I am going to attempt to make a rubber duck cake for Lukes bday. Also the bikes sound fun!

  2. Fun! I've always wanted to learn to do cakes, but I don't like to eat cake. Here is a cool cake blog you can check out if you're interested... cakewrecks.blogspot.com. Happy baking!
