Happy Birthday Isabel!



Isabel turned 4 this month. We celebrated with family and friends. In preparation for the event I asked her what gift she wanted and what kind of cake she would like. I was suprised by her very specific answers: An ironing board and a pink and purple cake with polka dots and Princess Belle on the top. She was pretty pleased with the results and can't wait to turn 5.

Happy Birthday Belle. That cake was amazing. You are very talented and came up with the perfect cake to match her description.

And if she needs more practice ironing. I have a full basket here of things she can work on. I never seem to get around to that chore. Maybe it is time to start teaching Sophie how to use the real iron.

Thanks Sarah! Someone once taught me how to frost a cake and I was surprised by how simple it really is. It's all about the crumb coat.

I do wish the iron worked. :) She's asking for a vaccuum for Christmas...Someone could make a bundle of money creating functional housekeeping "toys".
