Trouble focusing...

Got the house in *some* semblance of order this morning...  Even took down a few more Christmas lights...  Yeah... there are still some up.  One neighbor down the block still has some up so I don't feel TOO behind...  But when we start mowing for the spring, they better be down, because then it will just look dumb.

Cuss word for the day, *cats*  YOU know what I'm talking about!  They think retaliation is cute...

I made a quiche last night for everyone elses supper.  I had to leave for a meeting.  Let's just say, using dehydrated onion flakes and then corn bread for the bread crumbs were a fail.  I had it for breakfast and attempted to give some to Leon for breakfast.  NOT a favorite...


Going with my random theme...  Something Meri needed printed out for a homework assignment...



Looking for a way to make a giant 3D cupcake cake for a 1 year old's birthday party.  I've been thinking and thinking on it...  May make a mock up by the weekend to try it out... hmmm...  Anyone have any ideas?  Not sure where I can find the cake molds...


Looking forward to sewing two seams tonight!  Seriously... My life is THAT exciting!

I cannot put my hands on that purse Meri gave me!  You see it everywhere, then when you need it, it can't be found...

I can hear Leon rattling his cage in the bedroom above me.  Something tells me he's not ready for a nap yet. 

Well, on to my day!  You have a great one!  I've got meetings back to back and then a dentist appointment this afternoon to glue back in a crown.  YAY ME!

Giant cupcake cake without a special pan, try making several round cakes, stacking them, then carving the top into a cupcake shape. Then frost in a most excellent way. :-)

We're having quiche tonight. I've used dehydrated onions in it before and it worked ok. Never heard of putting bread crumbs of any kind in it, though.

Frances has a good idea for the cupcake. If you really want the pan, I've seen them at Michael's, Hobby Lobby, Joann, some Ace Hardware stores, some Target stores, etc. I haven't bought one because I figured I'd only use it once. Speaking of...maybe you have a friend who only used theirs once and will let you borrow it.

My cousin made one by using a large glass measuring cup that she got years ago from some party show.


It wasnt a perfect cupcake but it was really cute

I would do what Frances said but for the top, use an oven proof mixing bowl a tad larger then the cake pans to bake in. Works wonderfully IF you have such a bowl.

I have zero advice for the cupcake cake thing, except to go to Amazon and buy one. lol That is what I would do.

Pampered Chef has the measuring cups that are oven proof and they are huge - I've seen people put barbie dolls in them after they are baked and the cake is the bottom of the dolls dress. So it would be perfect for a giant cupcake!
