Cake class

My cousin talked me in to taking a cake decorating class with her and my aunt. She gets asked to make wedding cakes, and wanted us to learn more with her. We have taken course 1, and then we skipped to course 3 (which we're taking now). So here's one of the cakes I made just the other day. I thought it turned out pretty good and was amazed that I could make something look that nice! :-)


Another recent accomplishment was that we pulled our car into our garage! Since we moved here 2 1/2 months ago, it's been used as storage. It still is, but we've finally gotten it cleaned out enough and organized so that we can pull our car in. Of course it's still really hard to get our doors open so we'll have to do more, but it's looking hopeful for us to be able to put our car in there during the winter. Wa-hoo!
