The maiden voyage....

My cake stand has been sitting on my dresser since I made it and I decided it was time for a maiden voyage.... Well as maiden of a voyage as a cake can have...

What better cake to break in a new stand the the oh-so-delicious Coconut Cake?




Not too shabby, eh? I thought it turned out great! And, the cake was divine.

Check out the poll on my sidebar. I'm looking for input.

adventures

Last Friday was quite an adventure. Poor Julianne was knocked down by the dog. TWICE. On the front porch. Twice. Luckily (sort of), she only got scraped up once. The second time the dog knocked her down, she was trying to go in the house and the dog suddenly decided he needed to go out. He pushed her over and she fell off the porch onto some cinder blocks serving as steps to the side. She skidded on them and scraped her face up pretty bad. Poor little thing. I was so mad, I was shaking. They got more and more red as the night wore on and the next day her eye was slightly swollen. She had scrapes on the crown of her forehead, her eye, her cheek, and her right nostril and just under her nose. It was so so so sad. Luckily, she is healing quickly. The smaller scrapes and the redness is gone and the scabs are starting to come off. Needless to say, she yells at the dog more than she was before... I can't say that I blame her.

because it makes me giggle...

I've found a new way to do Julianne's hair. It would work out better if the barrett would stay in, but what do you do?

I give you..... Back piggies!!!

Tee hee hee hee!
