Let Us Eat Cake


The fun things about this outfit:
1. Sweater - Hand-Me-Down
2. Scarf - Gift
3. Jeans - Buckle
4. Boots - Target

Well...
I made a cake. 

I've baked a cake twice before completely from scratch. 
Both were chocolate.
Thus, delicious!

Of of those cakes was this past Mother's Day. It was so good! A little dense, but still good.
It got my baking juices flowing and I was thinking what else I could make!
Then I did what any professional baker rookie would do. I bragged!
I instagramed and pulled out my phone to show people my beautiful chocolate cake!

What did they do?

They asked me to bring one to our little mid week group gathering.

I couldn't bring the same exact cake. I had to try to expand my developing skill set.
So I plunged head first into the world of... yellow cake.
Not nearly as appetizing, in my opinion, but it would have to do.

The end result was a lemon yellow cake with strawberry filling and cream cheese frosting.
And I do think my bragging will rear it's ugly head once again as I tell you that
I made it all 100% from scratch!

Neither is particularly beautiful, but both are yummy! 
And I'm banking on getting better at the whole decorating thing with time!

Psalm 16:11
You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

  1. From scratch is the best way to go! I never really worry too much about looks, as long as it tastes good. :D
