I've been up here in far Northern California for several weeks now torturing my mother, cooking and baking, not necessarily in that order. Made a cake for my cousin's wedding a few weeks back. Then had an opportunity to practice my fondant work and made a cake for a Halloween party last weekend. I think it turned out pretty well and the hostess loved it and said it tasted fantastic and that's all that matters.
Next up in the baking arena, Mykel's wedding cake and a birthday cake for my mom. And...an attempt at fried chicken. Everyone keep your fingers crossed, it could get ugly!
