Let there be cake!

Cakes were accomplished...Katie and Jen helped!  The cakes will be decorated a bit at the church...I will make some icing once they have been safely delivered to the church.  Decorated a bit my meaning is a bit of powdered sugar on some...some will get a powdered sugar icing with lemon flavor and some icing will be sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.  Nine cakes were baked.  Chocolate, Lemon Poppyseed, Lemon Pound, Apple Cinnamon and Pumpkin.

Later in the day fruit was cut up and everything gathered together.  Ready or not!


Cakes are all over... some in the kitchen and some in the laundry room...making good use of my clothes folding area!

Far Guy ran all the errands yesterday to pick up buns from the bakery and to pick up meat for the buns.  We should be all set!

Oh wow! What do you do with all of those cakes? Yum! I am not much of a baker, though I do like making homemade bread from scratch in the winter.

Well done on the cakes. Since we had an incredibly busy day I'm reading this late Sunday evening so the party is over now. I can just imagine how much everyone loved all of those lovely cakes. I'm glad Far Guy was up to running some errands for you.
Happy Birthday to your mom, (just a bit late.)
Blessings,
Betsy

Wow, you sound so energetic! If I were just talking about making all those cakes, it would be enough to make me feel exhausted! You must have had quite a crowd. Happy birthday to your mom!
