Wow! Cake...

Ok, so I was between classes this weekend (end of one class, start of another; nursing class schedules vary greatly from a typical university class schedule), and I did no homework related work whatsoever! Although I perhaps should have been studying and refreshing myself for my final practicum, I did not. Instead, I spent the weekend scrapbooking and on Saturday I made a cake. And let me say, I even impressed myself. Not cause it was fantastically tasting (I made if from a cake mix, but it still tasted good!), but because the decorating job was crazy! I attempted to make my own fondant, and I used it to decorate the cake. It was a success!!!


I decided to go with a valentine's theme, seeing as this is probably the extent of valentines creativity I will get to..due to being in school of course. I was even able to successfully drape a huge sheet of rolled fondant over the entire cake without catastrophe! No ripping, to tearing, and the entire cake covered without a wrinkle. Of course this was only a 9" cake, I guess next will be a larger cake. Gets trickier as the cake gets larger. Now if only someone would come eat this thing, as it's really not part of my diet. Actually, we had a few people over for superbowl, and managed to finish the cake off then.

Now I should go take pictures of the awsome scrapbook pages I made this weekend as well. I was happy with my product!!
