Cool Letters

Story Time!!

So today I told Matt that I bet he liked having a "W" in his name, 'cause it's a cool letter. Apparently Matt doesn't think that "W" is a cool letter, but "R" is... So we traded. His name is now Matther and my name is now Lauwa!

re awe cool!

What to Do?!

Hey all,

Matt and Laura both here.

We're deciding what we should do today. We're going to get haircuts, once we get off our lazy butts and shower, but we also want to do something else. We could go bowling or geocaching... Or shopping, but we always go shopping and have already had a taste of that this weekend. Hmm... We've been pretty lazy thus far. We watched The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. We watched the first two last weekend, but skipped the third one if favor of "Amazing Wedding Cakes." "'Cause you're on crack," Matt just said to me. We also hung out with Chelly bean and watched Shrek the Third, and I think I've had enough TV for now! "Shrek Three Pwned," Matt again.
ta ta for now!

Etch a Sketch Thursday: Week 14

Hey all

So I don't have a picture, but I'm going to consider the cake made on Tuesday as todays Etch a Sketch :).



What happens is I have homework, but I don't want to do the homework, and I still have time before it's due, but I feel weird working on a picture when I know I should be working on homework.

Cake/ Etch a Sketch [Tuesday]: Week 14

So first I found the blog "Cake Wrecks." This blog led me to the Cakelava blog. From there I was inspired to watch "Amazing Wedding Cakes." Today I got the urge to make a cake. It definitely has it's quirks, and had it been a professional cake, you would have probably seen it on Cake Wrecks. Luckily, this was my first time making anything but a homemade looking cake, and it was my first time making and using fondant. I think it came out nicely for a first try. Yes, the fondant is a little lumpy (and lopsided), there is a tear in the fondant that one of the butterflies is mostly covering, and yeah. I have yet to taste it. I know it looks boringly white, but I forgot to add color to the butterflies before I cut them [blush]

The lopsided side.

Oh yeah, and the plate was a tad small.
