day what? 13


When was the last post? 4 days ago? yes, a lot has happened since the 9th.

Let's see....

OK, to be honest, I have no clue what I was doing on the 9th aka on Saturday night. Pretty lame, huh?

Sunday was a good day. Hubby and I went to church then we did laundry at his parents' house.
We rented a movie: Night at the Museum 2 : Battle of the Smithsonian. I thought it was OK. It was funny here and there, but I am glad we didn't spend the $ to go to the theater to watch it. There were couple scenes where the graphics I thought was rough. Well, this movie is definitely better than ''The Ugly Truth". What? Why? Well..... I really don't see the point of watching a movie about lust. A friend suggested a friend who suggested to me to watch the movie. I bet I was grinning during the entire movie just b/c the story and all.

the 11th .......

I was cooking a storm in the kitchen.

Things I'm excited about when I have my own house:

a BIGGER kitchen counter.

the 12th

hubby helped a lot, i mean A LOT keeping up with the cleaning up. I would've cried half way baking the cake & making the marshmallow fondant if he didn't rescue me.

We had birthday supper in the evening at my in-law's. I made 3 individual birthday cakes (heck yeah, call me ambitious) for grandma, grandpa & hubby. These cakes are my 1st attempt at making fondant. Please forgive the horrendous colors. IMO they look pretty good (hey, I spent hours getting them done, give me some credit =P)

I hope these don't hurt your eyes.


Who knew that kneading fondant could be so tiring? Esp. when you want to add colors in. Even my smallest batch took forever! The slightly green colored cake was for hubby. He wanted to have a logo from his WOW game.

This cute little white cake was for grandma. Next time I roll white fondant I better use different rolling pin. The one i have is made of some short of wood and boy that didn't help my fondant stay clean.


The last one was for grandpa. Why was it pink? Because I was an idiot. By the time I decorated this cake my brain wasn't working anymore. My clothes were covered in powdered sugar as well as my kitchen.

Everyone had fun, I had a LONG good night sleep. It was worth it.

Happy birthday to my beloved ones =)

I am thinking one of these days I'll take orders from people to bake them cakes.

till then,
blessings
