Florida Family Fest 2009 began Tuesday night. I got the call around 6:30 that my bio father (from here on referred to as BF) & my Nanny (my grandmother) had arrived at my sister Sara’s house. So I went over to Sara’s for some visiting & picture viewing. After a couple hours Nanny was ready…

I’m home from Baltimore. Got in late last night. Today I was really tired and fog brained. I haven’t uploaded my pics yet. I’ll do that tomorrow. Had a great time and Lisa had a beautiful shower. Lesson learned tonight: when a chicken Kiev says you should bake it in an oven for 35 minutes,…

So…Kristie asked about how did I get the colors the way I did. I used Wilton icing colors. No top secret ingredients I promise! Christina baked the cakes. A big one for the bottom and a little one for the top. Then I whipped up a huge amount of icing, using the standard Wilton icing…

So remember when I decorated that Dora cake a couple weeks ago? Well, the little girl’s birthday party was Saturday so I did her a new cake. And this one was MUCH better!
