on the cake

Well - it went on pretty easy. Smoothed out pretty nice. I kinda wished I had made some of the white chocolate shells to try on it. Oh well - I may try it again with all the decorations. This last pic is what I would like it to look like, or similar.

my first try at fondant frosting for the wedding cake

So I tried out the marshmallow fondant frosting that I found on the internet. It was so sticky to make - the pics don't even show how sticky but it ended up turning out pretty smooth. In the next couple days I will try putting it on a cake.

I also made a few white chocolate shells - I want to see how they freeze. See if I can make them way ahead and freeze them. I think they turned out pretty good.

Let you know how the frosting works on the cake.

classes

I am taking a 2 week on line class in Photoshop, I am learning some pretty cool stuff. Here are a few examples of what I have done.

this and that

So here are a couple of the trial shells I did for favors. I have about 180 of them left to go!!

We finished cleaning out the back bedroom that will be Scotts. Now we just need to paint it and then get Scott moved into it. The dining room is next, then on to the rest of the house. It is coming along. Only 15 weekends left to go to get it all done.

It has been hot the last few days, finally feels like summer. Tim and I headed to the coast after work on Thursday. It was so cold and windy that we could hardly walk on the beach. We did snap a few pics (see the post below). We did not stay on the beach too long. But we do have so much fun together!

favors

So the asthma episode is pretty much over. Just a little tiredness left really.

Now I am ready to be on the move, I am starting on the wedding favors, kinda stumbled on what I wated to do. Seashells with our names and dates in them with bows. So easy and cheap and can be part of the decorations. And I found white paper lanterns at the dollar store with lights already in them - SCORE!!!

I will post a pic of the favors later.

cough cough cough

I have been down with an asthma attack for a few days now - it is finally getting some better. Tim has been so good, coming here every day at lunch and bringing me a big pop. : ) I was hoping to head back to work tomorrow but I don't know. We'll see. I can hardly wait to get a good deep breath without coughing up a lung. On the plus side I have been coughing so hard I think it is kinda like sit ups!
