Alice in Wonderland Cake
I did it!!!! The tie-dyed cake I attempted worked!!! I started with just a basic yellow cake mix, and divided it into bowls and dyed the batter different colors. After which I layered into a bunt cake pan. Once it was baked and cooled, I flipped the pan over and set the cake upside down on a platter. I then proceeded to frost it with 2 different colors of frosting striping it as I went. Added the sprinkles and ta-da I was done. It looks pretty cool!! The best part about it is when cut open the layer wrapped around each other to create almost a swirl look to it. I am so pleased.
Sorry, I was so excited about telling you about the cake I forgot to mention that I was sorry for not posting yesterday. I got crazy busy with a surprise family visit and a impromptu BBQ at my in-laws house last night that by the time we got home, I was beat.
The BBQ was tons of fun, and as always, the food was great. Grilling up steaks, and making corn-on-the-cob is always a great way to bring people together. Then again, food just in general will do that. One of my favorite things in all the world is watching the satisfaction on people's faces as they eat food I have prepared for them. It brings a sense of peace knowing that I was able to provide something that they can enjoy. It's difficult to explain to joy it brings me.
I was so glad we had decided to clean the house yesterday afternoon, as we had surprise company. Our Gamer's aunt and uncle stopped by to see the Sound Castle. They had never been able to swing in before because they live a ways away. It was a pleasure being able to show them our home.
The sky is blue with clouds playing chase across it's expanse, and a gentle breeze is lifting the leaves of the trees. Our house smells like fresh coffee, and the Celtic music in the background has a calming effect on our home. It's very peaceful.
