Cake Success (I Hope)

When I'm not sitting in it, John likes to abscond with my desk chair on wheels and use it as a walker on the wooden floors.


What's Cookin'? A birthday cake! In my effort to learn how to bake cakes, I baked a cake for Chris' upcoming birthday, which we are celebrating with family tomorrow. I made Absolutely the Best Yellow Cake from Great Cakes and Fluffy Chocolate Buttercream Frosting from The Cake Mix Doctor (cutting the cocoa powder about in half because Chris likes light chocolate). From sampling both the cake and the frosting, I think they don't out well! I present photographic evidence in case leprechauns make off with my cake overnight . . .
