A friend reminded me yesterday that it's been a while since I updated this thing. Damn you, laziness! Here are a few updates since March?
If you have never made a red velvet cake you would be shocked and dismayed to find out exactly how much red food coloring goes into it. I cut the amount by a two thirds not out of health consciousness but because there was one lone bottle of red food coloring left at my neighborhood supermarket.
Did you know that red velvet cake is actually a chocolate cake? It is! I won't even tell you what else is in there.
Instead of a three layer cake I made 34 cupcakes. If you live in Chicago and like red velvet, hit me up for a cupcake.
The frosting, of which I made about ten pounds worth, is cream cheese, whipping cream, mascarpone, and vanilla. Blueberries for the blue.
This was kind of a bust. I took a few and then lost interest. It's the whole lack of discipline thing. That's sad, right?
Holy crap! Adjusted they are. So tight I think they're squeezing my head into a Bart Simpson shape.
It's I Dreamed I Was Assertive #14! Get your copy over at my Etsy shop.
Leopard pattern Vans, of course.
Oh yes we did! Even though we were fooled into thinking it was Brit Pop when it was something not even close. Thanks to A and D for indulging me!
They ain't pretty, but they're maki! Salmon and avocado.
Sunday morning family kickball at the schoolyard!
Admittedly, my gardening "technique" consists of planting a seed and then checking in on it a few months later so if no pumpkins grow I have mainly myself to blame, right?
