The cake







I really wanted to make I. a princess castle cake for her birthday. However, it requires quite a bit of room in the freezer in order to cut it the right way and such to build it...I was going to use my Grandma's freezer, but when it came down to it, I decided to buy a cake and alter it to my liking. :-)

So, here is what I was going to make: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNKh75uxKN4

Instead, I bought a pumpkin cake from Costco and two single servings from Albertson's...et voila!

This is what I bought and made. It was fun! Tomorrow, I will include the little statues of the princesses. I'll post a final photo tomorrow.

My Yearly Hobby...



I just wish it were more often, but here is my latest creation (well, I actually used a pattern this time). I. needed a black and white dress that had no bling...impossible to find for a 3 yr. old... So, I found this pattern at Walmart and found some material at my favorite fabric store. The material was perfect, I didn't brake any needles and didn't have to pick anything out...I take that back, I pulled out the zipper because the way the pattern had me put it in wasn't how I like to do it. I didn't need the overhanging zipper cover with the material because I had a dress zipper.
