3rd and Last Cake

Notice the heart in the middle of the top rose. I think it's fun, but I didn't do it on purpose. :)



Last night was my last Wilton Cake Class. I finally learned how to make a rose. I made many not so good ones and a few good ones. I hope you enjoyed the cake pictures!

I've Been Tagged!

Joanne at Blessed tagged me to share fifteen things that I'm not afraid to admit. She only listed ten. We'll see if I can think of that many.

1. I have an absolute obsession with baking!

2. I cry at things that you would never believe I cry at. (Ex. the movie Transformers) Surprising, I know.

3. I am really passionate about Alabama football and I didn't even turn off ESPN Gameday when my husband left the room today.

4. My husband says I way overuse the word "ridiculous". It's ridiculous!

5. I definitely have a soft spot for musicals. I love them!!! I know every word to all the songs in The Sound of Music and most of the words to the songs in Grease.

6. I am slightly OCD.

7. When I get tired, I sound much more like the stereo-typical Alabamian than I do on a day to day basis.

8. I have driven (x that), ridden from Alabama to North Carolina (a 12+ hour trip) and only seen about 2 hours of it.

9. I don't like yellow gold jewelry.

10. I am from the coast, but I don't like seafood!

11. I love Christmas time so much that I never take my decorations down until well into the new year. I can't bear to see them put away knowing it will be a year before I get to take them out again.

12. I really love to play games, but I take them WAY to seriously sometimes.

13. If it wasn't for the money, I would redo my wedding EVERY year!

Well, I made it to 13 (with the help of my husband). Let's see how my friends can do.

Surprise!

I always know when David gets home because I can hear him pull in the driveway. At about 4:30 on Thursday I heard him pull in. I was, of course, wondering why he was home early. Looking through the back window, I see my sweet husband walking up to the back door with a dozen roses in his hands. What a sweetheart! I thought you guys might enjoy some pictures!








Winnie the Pooh

I am taking the Wilton I Cake Decorating class this month and I made my first cake this past Monday night. It was a Winnie the Pooh form that I borrowed from a wonderful friend. Here are a couple pictures. Look back for pictures of my future work. ;)




ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!!!!

This is a bit late, but oh well!!!! David and I went with my parents to the BAMA vs. Ole Miss game on October 18th. We had a blast! We won 24 to 20 and truly had a great time! Roll Tide! Here are some pics.

My parents eating our marvelous pulled pork sandwiches! (Dad, I think we should go back to the same place next time we are there. They were so good!)
Mommy and her sandwich.
The Biggest, Best Pulled Pork Sandwich EVER!

Me and David. First time we had seen each other in 10 days. We were so excited to see each other!!!

I had just said to my mom that I really wished they would face us for once and they did!
It was AWESOME!!!
Final Score! Roll Tide!

Updated Cake Picture

This is a bit late, but that's ok! The day after our celebration of David's birthday, he decided to have another piece of cake. He sliced it and the picture below is what it looked like. This picture is much more of what I had in mind except for the fact that I didn't want it to remain in the pan. Next time I do this cake, I will definitely do it the day before and definitely not allow the ice cream to melt as much as I did this time.
