Recent events: I made a vintage cake for a friend's daughter's birthday! I'm absolutely terrible at cake decorating, but I found a method that's perfect for someone like me: cake pointillism.
First, bake cake and lay out your template...in my case, large stickers with the backing still on.
Get your dots going!
I am definitely going to be doing this a lot more in the future.
It's been quiet around here. The Christmas tree is finally out, having shed every single needle before reaching its temporary outdoor resting place. I've never had a tree (well-watered and bought fresh!) that shed so much! It is absolutely bare.
Todd has been sick with the flu for nearly a week, so it's been especially quiet. Pepita has been in charge of both patient care...
...and guard duty...
When not working on the business, working on puzzles....
Books and puppies! Puppies and books!
...reading, having nice quiet time...one of the reasons that I love winter. It's so nice to just be. No guilt, just a nice slow recharge.
Pepita agrees.
