I successfully baked a cake!!!
Now it was not from scratch, because I obviously can't do that, but it was a delicious strawberry cake and cupcakes. I believe I have fully redeemed myself now ;)
I was in Kroger yesterday and the cake mix was on sale for $0.94. I said to myself "Maybe I should try it again with the box cake?" Pondering and walking the isles, I decided to give it a go. I also bought Butter Cream frosting and red food coloring. We got home, I was feeding Ella, baking a cake, I finally felt 'DOMESTIC!'
I have to toot my own horn, because they were FANTASTIC! I feel a little more compelled to make Ella's first birthday cake. This party planning stuff is stressful. Making sure every bodies schedule works or what to serve, when and where to have it... Jeramy has already informed me that next year will be Mommy, Daddy and Ella! hehehe....We'll see!

You did awesome! They look tasty. How did you make such a perfect heart? How is the transition to whole milk going? I've heard that buttercream is the best icing to use. May have to stop at the store tonight...
try doing that mess with 4 kids!!! At least 2 of them share a birthday!
They look and tasted awesome! I love the heart on the one. Why did we not get that on the ones you brought to work?!
The heart is actually for pancakes and I just set it on top and filled it with icing ;) genius, huh!
