The New Apron
I have been looking and looking for an apron. Like a nice one that I could wear if I did a show or baked a cake in a public place (when will that happen? Not sure, but it's a good idea to be prepared, right!). So, I found a pattern for this one. I think it took me longer to pick out the fabrics that all matched yesterday than it took me to make it today. Not really, but it did take me a long time to pick out the fabric. So now when they ask me to guest star on Ace of Cakes or The Cake Boss or maybe even be a contestant on Food Network Challenge....I will be prepared with my apron! Or should I start making a chef coat!?
I have only ever had one slice of this cake but I have not forgotten it. Back when I was the director at HHBC preschool Karen made this coconut cake and it was outstandingly unforgettable. Jeremy doesn't like coconut so I have never tried to make it or asked for the recipe. Well, we are going to a family gathering tomorrow and I made it for the gathering since I know that there will be other desserts there. I feel like coconut is something that you either love or hate...not really an in between. While I was making this cake I had a flashback to my childhood. I remember when Johnny, September, and I would go over to my grandma and grandpap's house we would just eat flaked coconut straight out of the bag. It was like the best treat ever! While I decorated this cake today I had to take a handful right out of the bag....just for old time sake!
Girlies playing the piano this morning-well sort of-Layne was really just trying to ruin my shaving cream snowman!
