Where Does Time Go?

I mean this in two senses, again because it has been many months since I have updated this blog....Where Does Time Go? and this May my husband and I celebrated our 25 year wedding anniversary, WHERE DOES TIME GO?? Both events seem as if they were just days ago. I was getting married days ago and I was updating my blog just days ago. Ok, maybe not days for the former but it truly does not seem as if 25 years have passed since we first wed. I can only hope for another 25. Some pictures from our celebration past and present:

Us, cutting our cake 25 years ago....

This was a re-creation of the cake we made for our wedding , down to the very obstinate frosting. I will never make that frosting again. I have learned quite a bit in 25 years

We thought it was pretty good then and now

The vision for this cake creation has been in my thoughts for about three months. In July we spent a week on the Oregon coast with our dear friends including their soon to be two year old adorable boy. He was all about the fish. Fish in the ocean, fish at the aquarium, fish in the souvenir shops, fishy, fishy fishy. The cake was vanilla with my stand-by favorite buttercream frosting. All of the embellishments were edible, that is if you like sugar candy! Super fun cake to make and share. The two year old's comment? "Whoa...." "Fishy"

I wish when I had turned 21 I was as composed as the young young lady is! In Boise on Spring Break from Cal Poly she came to celebrate with her elders. Not only is she beautiful but she's smart! One of three students a warded the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) in STEM Undergraduate Research Scholarship for Summer 2018. It was a true honor to create this cake for her to celebrate her coming of age party. Happy Birthday Miranda!!

This cake was a challenge. I typically make my cakes the day OF the party. I know they will be fresh, the decorations will be "just so" and if they aren't I can tweak them at the party.....not the case with this one. I would not be there AND it had to be done a day and a half before the event.....the pressure! This is exactly why I don't sell cakes for money, though I heard this one was a success even disguised as a gluten free chocolate delight!
