Todd turns 39...

Todd turned 39 and it was time that I tried a new recipe for a true German Chocolate cake.  It was soooo easy to make and the frosting was delicious!!!  Even the boys loved it...nuts, coconut, and all!  It was a great finish to a special day.

Misfit

Misfit is a book that my son, Nathan, read. He chose to use it for a project in his 9th grade Pre AP English/Language Arts class. So...being the "Super Mom Wanna Be" that I am...I decided that because a pivotal part in the book is when the main character turns 16, Nathan needed a cake to "round out" his project. (Not to mention the fact that everybody loves cake...even ELA teachers!) So...I made the cake, painted it up to resemble the book cover and there you go! A yummy cake and a good grade...What a great combination!!!



Route 44

One of my favorite people came to visit and we decided to bake!  It certainly isn't one if my best but it sure was fun making it!!!
