Inspired by another blogger (Melissa), I've become slightly obsessed with wanting to decorate cakes and cookies. After ordering and reading, cover to cover, three cake and cookie books, I decided that tonight was the night to begin my quest. With Roman in tow, I headed to Michael's to collect the deco items I needed and then to the grocery store for self rising flour (thank you, Brock, for a bit of babysitting!). Once Roman was in bed I scrubbed the countertops, pugged in my iPod, and fired up the KitchenAid. I felt like it was a good omen when the eggs smiled back at me!
I must admit, I really haven't baked cakes before. I can now line a pan like a pro, but baking them is obviously another matter. I pulled it out too soon and got this gooey mess for the top tier (yikes)...
...and this sunken beauty for the bottom (wow).
Oh well - it is nearly 10:45 pm...I'm off to bed. Success will be mine tomorrow!
