CALIFORNIA The Whole State thread

Had to show you guys a pic of the cake one of my daughters made for the baby shower yesterday. I took so many pics of different angles, but one took maybe 2 of the whole shower. I was a little out of it and not really mingling, so at least I got the cake.

Can you tell they're A's fans? LOL

GO DODGERS

OH good! I didn't want to just send crimps, so thought you might like some things to play with. I hope you like them.

I got back from the shower and kids were hungry????? Nasty

Micky D's. I can't keep anything down from that place ever. Now to finally get to open the FBCM eggs I got in the mail. They delivered them as I was backing out of the driveway to leave. The box isn't damaged, so

Oh man! So many pretty things to play with. I took the bag you sent me to the bead store so the gal could show me what to do with them. There were a couple of things I had no idea how to use, haha. She was like "Wow! What a great friend!" I told her "Yep, I have some awesome friends!!!" Thank you so much Kim! This was really above and beyond! You better not argue with me the next time I want to do something for you!

I thought it turned out cute, but then all of her cakes do. I see her though being as frustrated when them I I used to get. You want perfection and then you see a flaw and it drives you crazy even if no one else sees it. Somehow I got demoted to cupcakes. Never just a few, always 50 or many more. Talk about cramped hands. Oh and the elephant's trunk and legs were Rice Crispie (sp) Treats covered in fondant.

Sunny you'd have to spend a small fortune to collect all the stuff I have. Those were just a tiny bit of what I work with.

BTW I could have told you how to use everything there

And I didn't send you much, but I was running low on crimps and thought it looked pathetic when I bagged yours up. LOL

1/2 Dozen???? OMG! You'd go blind trying to find them in the bags. LOL I order them usually at about 150 or more per order. Sometimes 300. I was just running really low and don't know how that happened. Just got one of my orders during the week, so I'm good till the next one gets here. So it's not like I don't have a few to share when I have a stock pile, but my stockpile was hit by a grandkid and just about depleted. She wanted my roos's tail feathers too! I gave her what I have cleaned, sanitized and bagged. I literally hid the family jewels, which are basically uncut gemstones. ROFL!!!

Awesome cake Kim....My daughter loves cake decorating too. I took classes years ago only to find it wasn't really "my thing" but I was soooooooooooooo good with that because I already have too many things that are "my thing"......LOl I passed all my compulsively collected equiptment on to Cari so she is the envy of all her friends with all my stuff......LOL. I much prefer building things like birdhouses & chicken coops etc.......LOL
Carrie Stroble is almost here. Last call she was in Oakldalew on her way here. We will drive through the auction & drop off birds of hers then on to breakfast/lunch or whatever then back to my house to load all her things for her trip back upto Arnold.
