Obsessed

Have you ever been so obsessed with something that you don't want to do anything else? For me- right now it is cloth diapers. Weird I know, but every time I sit down at the computer all I want to do is look and look and look. I have read so much information and read a ton of reviews about all the cloth diaper brands out there. I found so many that I think would be great to have- but with a budget I can't get them all. I finally narrowed it down to what I think that I want to get.
When Kenna was born and Warren asked me if I would be willing to use cloth diapers- I said no way. I had no idea at how much they had changed and what you can use now. While at my sister's baby shower a couple of weeks ago- my cousin-in-law was telling us how she uses them. I emailed her later and she sent me a lot of helpful info. Now I want to give it a try- and hopefully it works. - And hopefully I can stay away from all the websites once I get mine ordered...

Cakes, Frosting, and Fillings

For our Relief Society Meeting last night I was asked to give a presentation on cakes/cupcakes and fillings and ideas on decorating. Here is what I came up with.

The cake has been cut and filled with a raspberry danish dessert. I also took another cake and showed them how to cut it - told how to fill and put frosting on it. Hopefully I gave them some good ideas.

Different borders

More borders.

Cupcake ideas- fruit shapes- cherries and apples; animals; and just a normal star tip swirl on top.

I am glad that it turned out okay.
