I have been super busy with a variety of things...

tomorrow, I will get the sketches up, but for now here are some photos of the beginnings of my garden, (only half is planted) and the baking of Jeri's birthday cake...

 

Strawberry Cake with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting

  

  

Jeri testing the icing!

  

the finished 4 layer cake!

and here are some cookies that I made: I need to find a better icing recipe! They looked cute, but really didn't taste that great...

  

As a side note: here is a photo of the Easter pie I made for breakfast on Easter. 

  

The recipe is from Martha Stewart's Baking Handbook. I got mixed reviews on it. Mainly it was a little too cheesey, but it did have lots of spinach and other goodness in it!
