I have been so busy lately that I haven't really stopped to talk about all the stuff I've been doing. It's kind of a mixed bag, that. I mentioned the auditions, so let's go into some of the standard make & bake type things in a quick overview.
I skipped the fourth of July cake this year. The drought shut down all local fireworks, even those over the lakes, but I still snuck another couple of cakes in:

Cakes The "formal" cake was just to confirm to myself that those are really so much easier than the whimsical ones. It was. So much so that I decided to spray paint it because it took so little time to do the formal white look. The crab was for my Cancer (zodiac) mom's birthday. I liked the pinacolada-ness of the cake (complete with pineapple juice and coconut flakes), but I thought the execution was lacking.
On a random notes:
We have giant spiders in our house more often than not.
