Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

We celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in our house, but not the standard way that others do. My older daughter’s birthday falls on March 17th and this year I made her a Barbie cake. We were walking through the grocery store a couple of weeks ago and she spotted one in the bakery…..now she knew that her birthday was getting closer and she asked if I would buy her a cake like that. I took one look at the price and decided that I would attempt to make her one. I have always wanted to try my hand at cake decorating, but I have never had a class. I remember my grandmother making these cakes for me and my female cousins when we had birthdays, but I didn’t know so much time when into them……I totally appreciate the time my grandmother spent on creating these cakes now that I have made one (and spent the majority of my morning creating this cake). I use to watch my grandmother decorate cakes (she use to work for a bakery making wedding cakes) and do all kinds of crafty things. I think that because of her, I have a passion for creating.



Happy Birthday Alisia….My Little Princess!! Sorry I didn't get your Aurora card made, but I hope you liked your Aurora cake. ♥
