Rock It...Yeah!

Talk about wild. The game 'Rock Band' made for the playstation is an exact description of that word. Saturday night Jason and I took the kids over to his sisters house and ended up playing this game till 1:00 a.m. Jason usually would rather stay back and just watch, but

after a few "c'mon you've got to try it", he was giving the guitar a shot. If you have not ever watched the game it is so fun!

There are 2 guitarists, 1 drummer, and 1 singer. The songs starts out easy and gets harder; and of course you can choose your level of difficulty. It didn't take Jason long to get the hang of it and after a

short bit he was having fun. I fail everytime I try to play the guitar (as I can't even get past a simple song on 'guitar hero'), so I became the singer. When going home, I said to Jason "so would you buy guitar hero now?" He says "no, it would be more fun to buy Rock Band."

My latest project

I have to say that I'm not normally the type of person whom would normally adventure to go out of my way and make glamorous birthday cakes...that's what Katie is for. However I do love to bake. A friend of mine wanted a barbie doll cake for her 6 year olds birthday party this week. And she asked if I would do it since I have her foolishly tricked that I'm a really great bakress..he, he, he! Alright then, I took upon the challenge and started searching on the internet for pictures and ideas. I got several..I love the internet. So I was just going to do something simple with buttercream icing, until I saw photos of cakes with fondant frosting. I had to try! I was warned not to for the difficulty of fondant, but with a couple of mistakes I think the cake turned out pretty cute. I found a recipe for the stuff and made it 2 days before I decorated the cake. Letting the fondant sit and then rolling it in flour made it easier to work with and was not too bad. Here is my result...

not bad huh? I will definately do something like this again. Practice makes it better right? Cierra want's a castle cake for her bithday in October. Well see how that works.
