Red Velvet Cake: Continued

One week later and Jackson and I baked another Red Velvet cake. This time he helped decorate the cake. As evidenced by his shirt stains, he also helped mix the red colored cake. I had him pour the buttermilk into the measuring cup which didn't go over so well. All in all the cake turned out delicious and Jackson had a good time making what he calls birthday cake.

LeBron-SchmeBron, Check Out This Hoopster

One boy, a ball, and a dream...Then Mommy added the last item; hoop and Daddy was hoopin it up making j's while falling on the couch, popping miraculous shots from the kitchen, and getting glares from the Commissioner when a brick would ricocet into the TV or some other sacred artifact. But back to the boy with a dream; while King James was trying to be modest making his decision on TV, Cholo-J here was dunking with the signature Jordan tongue.

4th of July Cake

I know, I know, this is Jackson's blog. But if you look at the bottom of the photo, you'll see a finger reaching in to steal a bit of the whipped butter cream frosting. I'm trying to get a dramatic over head shot of the cake with the black granite background and in the LCD screen I witness these sausages (gets those from his mother) sneaking in to snag some frosting. The cake turned out perfect, so I had to post it. It is Red Velvet cake that I made for a party and I was ordered to bring some home for the pregnant wife. We got so little I'm making another this weekend. Kathy, you better get the sweet making machine going because the powerhouse trio of desert eaters is heading your way shortly.
