Good afternoon I have a question for the ladies if yall don't mind if you do that's cool too I'm just at my wits end. I went back and forth on if I should post my problem on a public forum but decided why not nobody knows what I look like if they seen me in public. I've talked to my wife and asked her for any suggestions or insight on the matter but she's out of ideas too. Anyway I'll just ask and see what happens. So pretty much every time I put icing on a cake whe I lift whatever I'm using to spread it with it pull a little of the cake with it. My wife suggested putting the icing in the oven turned off of course while it was still warm. I've tried that it works but only to a certain degree. I always wait till the cake is totally cooked cause she doesn’t and melted icing is repulsive to me. I am out of ideas and I really really want to have icing that isn't infected with little dots of cake. I know what you're going to say " it's just a cake you're gonna eat it anyway " and yes that's true but the perfectionist in me just wants to have a beautifully iced cake that I can be proud of and not embarrassed by. Like let's say we are invited to a gathering and I am tasked to bring a cake? What then? What then people? Buy one from a store on the way but then it's........ nevermind I'm getting too emotional ill just leave everybody alone forget I asked
Good suggestions so far. I would just add that make sure the cake is cooled completely before you try to add the icing. And make sure your icing is room temp
 
I worked on my new chicken pen some more today. Wielding a chainsaw while standing on a ladder isn’t one of my more practiced skills. Yet somehow, I still have all my fingers and toes!
Everyone else does too I hope?
 
That reminds me

@EmmaRainboe I found the perfect boots for you!

Oh heaven almighty I just had a moment. 😱

There was a bag of potting soil I'd forgotten about in my shed from last year and I thought, well maybe I can still use it. There was a rip in the bag and what looked like maybe some mold or something. So I started brushing away the weird stuff (with my gloves *ON* thank gawd) when suddenly the bag starts MOVING and a giant mouse leaps out of the bag RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE, landed on the shed floor and dashed around looking for cover. Yes, yes, I know it's just a tiny mouse, but it scared the living chit outta me. I made some rather peculiar noises as I danced around like a crazy person, got the hell outta there and slammed the shed door shut.
