Ace of Cakes here I come!

This week I made a cake for a friend's wedding. I have never made one before but I have always wanted to so It was my gift to our friends. I started baking on Tuesday frosted Wednesday and Thursday and finishing touches today, the wedding day. Set up went good with no mishaps. It turned out pretty good for my first one. I'm kind of a perfectionist so there were so many things I don't like but I'm sure with practice I'll get better. Everyone gave good compliments so that is reassuring and all got eaten as well. It did taste really good if I don't say so myself and I'm not even a cake lover. Gabe doesn't want cake for awhile because with every cake I baked he got to eat the top I leveled off. All in all it was fun and I love to create things. So you never know maybe I'll keep practicing and start a little side business one day. What do you all think do I have a future!

Is a Lie a Lie if...

So is it a lie if you told a lie but later found out the lie you told was actually the truth. I'll explain. Today I had to drive across campus to get a key copied on my way back to the rec I got pulled over by a campus cop. Now the cop was going the opposite way of we and literally turned down a street and turned around and was way behind me and finally pulled me over when I was in the parking lot of my building. He pulled me over because as he was driving by me he noticed my car inspection was expired. He came to my window and of course I didn't have my license on me. A few weeks ago I had lost it and couldn't find it anywhere. I told him I left it in my office . He takes down all my information. Then another cop stops and again comes up and asks me all these questions. They make me test my brake light and of course one was out. Finally he gives me a ticket for expired inspection and no DL on sight and just a warning about the brake light. First why did he pull me over anyway, second I had when they don't just give warnings for that sort of things. I think it is ridiculous.

Well I made plans to go to DMV after work so i could get a new license to show the judge but decide to go through my bag one more time. And I found my license it really was in my office. So originally I told the cop my license was in my office thinking it was lost. But then it really was there so technically I didn't lie to the cop Right?
I hate tickets though especially the ones for dumb reasons, I always think man if I just would stayed at the key place 5 min I would of never passed him and never had to deal with all the hassle. But then again I might not of found my license.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there, especially my mom. I love her so much and now that I am older and married I realize more and more every day how much my mother did for me and all I have learned from her. I am also very grateful for my Mother-Law for all she does and for raising such a great son. Gabe and I are both very blessed to have 2 wonderful mothers in our lives. Mothers day at our church is a great day even for us mothers to be. The men teach all the classes and the women get to eat an amazing feast and just visit and talk; eat and socialize 2 things we women do very well.













We Love You!














Yesterday we went to a dinner-get together for a coworker whose wife is having a baby. I made a cake for the event. I found this cute cake online that was a little baby so I thought I would recreate it. In the original cake, the cake was a light pinkish peach color for the skin of the baby. Well I barely added any pink coloring to the frosting and it turned bright pink. I didn't have enough frosting to try again so I had to improvise. They didn't find out the sex of the baby so I turned the rest of the frosting I had blue and frosted half the baby pink and half blue. It turned out pretty cute.
