Wedecided to celebrate Luke’s 3rd birthday a week early. I decided I would do the cake. Never having done a cake for the kid’s parties, I wanted it to look somewhat like the fancy ones you buy or the sister-in-laws make. I made up all the frosting and cake a week early. Jayden was eager to help and away we went. Luke is still Mickey Mouse crazy, so we had to do another Mickey Mouse cake. My first attempt with the frosting bag was quite an experience. I was frosting along concentrating on every stroke not noticing the frosting oozing out the top down the front of my shirt and the front of the cupboard door and onto the floor. By the time I realized it, I had stepped in in and tracked it across the floor and Luke was licking the frosting of the cupboard door with his tongue. Lovely. By the end, there was frosting all over including my face and hair. I thought the cake turned out super cute for a 3 year old party and was happy with it.
IN the afternoon my childhood friend and friend ever since Jessica came with her kids. She drove 2.5 hours to bring me meals in preparation for my upcoming surgery. She brought 4 casseroles complete with cookies, rolls, salsa, salad dressing, lettuce, cinnamon rolls, and cheese. She thought of everything. She is so generous and I was so grateful and lucky to have such a great friend.
