the designs.
katelynn’s took forever. the rind on that monster was at least 2 inches. i’ve never seen one so thick! i did get smart this year and only let her draw the designs she wanted on paper…it’s way easier to freehand those babies than follow a pencil line…
It’s my month for “teacher appreciation” snacks for Tanner’s teachers. Her teachers are SO awesome; I seriously don’t know what I’d do without them. Obviously I’d rather be at home with her, but at least it’s bearable knowing she’s being well taken care of. I guarantee you they’re the hardest workers in the entire system, too. Wow. Can you imgaine having five Tanner’s in a room? Quints? I can’t. So — since I speak cake — I gave it my best shot. It’s pretty cool…thin dark chocolate cakes from scratch with orange icing in between the layers. Think massive halloween oreo…but cake.
which reminds me…Halloween Oreos are far superior to regular Oreos. Holy yumminess. I love them! (Hence the inspiration.)
My camera’s been broken for a month now. (Sad, I know. The store wants $250 to “diagnose” it. Yeah right.) But thanks to mom & dad, who let me borrow their camera for Halloween week, I’ve got new pictures! Somehow, in the last month, Tanner got HUGE! Where did my little baby go? She’s so awesome; I still can’t believe I get to be her mom.
