Comments (4)Good luck with that mixed basket Brad. And hope you had a great Birthday week. I actually moved some of my cold growing hoyas outside for me the summer barring no freak weather. Actually just Polyneura and some of my Carnosa. I am considering moving my Linearis out for the spring/summer at this me too. I may wait for Tuesday evening to pass since the temps will dip that night into the upper 30's but will be back up to the 60's in the day. I would suspect these Hoyas see temps in the 30's at times in habitat. I will be sure to keep them dry in the meantime. Your cake looked great by the way. -David...See MorePool Party & Birthday Cake Update...
Comments (4)I must have missed your first post.Yes teens are usually easy to feed- especially when swimming. Great job on that cake, what did you frost with? Butter cream and fondant? Can't wait to see DH's cake. Di...See MoreTwo cake questions: inclusions in batter and bundt
Comments (5)Oh, that would have been good! I saw this after mixing the cake, though. It's in the oven now. The strawberries were very unripe: I used the less ripe ones to chop and put in the batter, but it sure won't be getting much flavor from those. I have never paid so much for such anemic berries. I saved the best ones to slice up. She won't get here til after 10 pm, I'm guessing we will serve the cake tomorrow, when more pople will be home. At this point, I will be happy if I can get it out of the pan in one piece. I had forgotten that my pan is not a typical bundt shape, but a very fluted design. Pretty pan but a devil to unmold.

Comments (28)I appreciate all the kind wishes and hope to be celebrating more years in the future. One of the residents here at the retirement community where I live celebrated her 100th birthday on June 11th. Several of my friends here are 90 and above. The younger retirees here look like youngsters! My birthday fest was great, in spite of a down pour as we were finishing up. You can see my family does not do 'fancy.' We were gathered under a huge patio umbrella in the backyard, with paper cups and plates, where we enjoyed a scrumptious picnic dinner (none of which I had to prepare.) The two well trained dogs came to say hello, and then went off to nap. Even one of the ferrets poked his head out for a minute. The cat stayed in the house. Patti, yes it has been a while since I posted any pics of her cakes and cup cakes. My 6 year old PC went into a decline several months ago, and Photobucket was making a lot of changes and I gave up trying to get anything to work. Now I have a new PC, WIN7, and still trying to get it 'trained.' She has added brownies, creme puffs and gluten free cupcakes to the menu, and still does some weddings. Here is the website if y'all would like to see it. Scroll down and see the link to the Facebook page where there are more pics. www.cupcakecompany.net P.S. I see I still don't have Photobucket worked out. I used the html thumbprint, thinking it was clickable to enlarge. It isn't and goes back to PB. And that pic is too dark. (Sorry. The link was rejected in the Optional/ Name spaces.) It should work if you type it into Google. Sue...See More- 10 years ago
