Birthday Cake

Yes, that's right. I made Asher's birthday cake from scratch! Flour and water. The recipe I used for the cake was one I had tasted before but had never made. I should tell you now that it's always best to try it yourself first. It was not very sweet, kind of dry, and really floury tasting. The frosting was excellent and I did a pretty good job decorating it. It was a little more work than I had envisioned. Making homemade butter cream frosting is time consuming but it tastes wonderful and looks good too. The white cake recipe...not so much. But everyone was gracious and ate it without complaint. Here's to Curious George, the inspiration for Asher's second birthday cake!
