Rose Cakes

I've discovered a new hobby lately...cake decorating. It's so much fun to do! The hardest part is teaching myself NOT to eat the product! lol These are pictures of my "rose cakes". The first one I did was for my son's wedding.

 Then I did this one.

Next I branched out and decided to start making my own homemade buttercream (I'd been using store bought buttercream from Sam's up to this point).

Then I decided to try adding something different so I made this one and put cherry pie filling in the middle and on top.

Heaven help me not to get as big as a house with this new hobby! Buttercream ranks right up there with chocolate in my book - HARD NOT TO EAT!! :)

I think I miss....

blogging! But it's been so long, I've let my blog lapse and now it'd be like talking to myself. Don't know if I'm ready to start doing that. lol

Three Months in a Nutshell

Wow. I've not blogged in almost 3 months. I think I've forgotten how. lol
So much is going on these days. A new grandbaby has arrived. Another new grandbaby is on the way. We're slowly repainting the entire upstairs of the house. Randey's job is moving to Georgia sometime in the next year or year and a half. I've become a tattoo addict. Youngest son is mere days away from graduating high school. Oldest son has finally returned from Okinawa and is living back in Florida. Ummmm let's see...what else? I've celebrated 17 months on the Weight Watchers Maintenance Program (yay me!). And I guess that's about it. All the major highlights anyway.


Huh. Okay. So that wasn't so bad. Maybe I do remember how to blog after all (sort of!)
