Here's the Cake!!
Yesterday was the last day of this course of the cake decorating class. This is the cake I made. It turned out better than expected. I'm not very good at making all those different flowers but 'practice makes perfect,' so I need to practice more. I have been practicing some today on making the roses, since I think they are so pretty. I'm beginning to do them better. The cake doesn't look like this now since it has some pieces missing. My husband ate a piece earlier and said it was delicious! The cake is a layered french vanilla.
I was going to take a watercolor class but it was full, so I signed up for the drawing class. Should be interesting since I can't draw a thing.
Early this morning we had some rain and loud thunder. I didn't budge from my bed though. Today was dreary looking all day long. I spent some time napping this afternoon. Those days just seem meant for napping. At least they have lately for me. Now when I was younger it was a different story. I never napped and only did so if I was sick. Not anymore. I relish a good nap!

You did a beautiful job on the cake! I taught myself to decorate cakes and have done many of them over the years, but it's been a while. My daughter took after me and has done a few. Like you I am NOT an artist when it comes to drawing. Doodling is my extent of drawing artwork.
I love those dreary, stay in bed days, but I always end up feeling guilty that I didn't get anything accomplished. Hope you enjoyed it!
Your cake looks beautiful, like a spring garden. Drawing classes are fun.
It's gorgeous, Rachel! I've piddled with cake decorating a bit, but never took any lessons. I'd like to someday though.
We're supposed to get 3-6 inches of snow on Saturday, so you know what that means: you'll probably get some of it too.
I'll be back for your Sunday sign post. Have a great weekend! :o)
Love and hugs,
Diane
Your cake looks beautiful, Rachel! Must take a lot of patienceto get those flowers just right.
We're under a windter storm watch again. Bummer! I am sick of winter. It will probably slide your way later today.
Stay safe and warm and have a good weekend.
Hugs,

Wow, I'm impressed! The cake looks beautiful...and delicious! I can see why your husband didn't waste any time digging into it.
Btw, I'm so excited that you're taking a drawing class! Woo-hoo! Is it figure drawing?? Are we going to see nudes above your church signs from now on? :)
There is nothing wrong with a good nap. Some days are just made for that.
That cake is great!! Good job Rachel.

Rachel your cake is beautiful.
lol about your drawing class. Enjoy it. Lisa
Rachel, your cake is very pretty. I think your flowers look lovely. I bet it tastes yummy too!
OMG that cake is absolutely to die for! Gorgeous! It is 1:18 AM and you have made me hungry for a piece of cake, with none in sight. Drat.
I love it. You have the same colorful Hispanic taste as I do, he he he.
Rachel...Words cannot express how beautiful your cake is. You did a FABULOUS job on your cake and in your class. I have no doubt that you will do just as well in your drawing class.
What can't you do? So far I have seen those beautiful baskets, beautiful decorated cakes and in the coming weeks I have no doubt that we will see some fabulous drawings too.
Rachel, you are so talented!!!
Good job Rachel. I am impressed. I bet you can draw just as beautiful!
Gorgeous!!!!
Your cake is gorgeous and VERY yummy looking!
You did a superb job!
Now, on to your drawing class... Maybe there will be nude models.
There's nothing wrong with a good nap. The older we get, the more we deserve (and need) naps. I've GOT to get my sleep or my day is ruined. When I don't get a good night's sleep, a nap is necessary.

Omigosh, you did a wonderful job on that cake, dear Rachel! I love decorating cakes but I've never even attempted to make flowers with icing! lol I'm so proud of you for taking on these courses, good for you!!! xoxo
That cake is GORGEOUS Rachel! And I think your Flowers are absolutely Beautiful, my dear!
BRAVO!
Wow, Rachel. That looks so good.
BTW, where's my piece of cake?
Your cake is lovely. I expect you will be taking orders next! :)
Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work
due to no data backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?
