[suziquzie]

could you bake her a cake?

 

[pdswife]

Do you think she would like one of my not so good or pretty cakes?

 

[suziquzie]

don't you know it's the thought that counts?

 

[pdswife]

Did you know I have lots of those to give away??

 

[suziquzie]

thoughts or well-meant cakes?

 

[LPBeier]

Do you know I appreciate your thoughts AND well-meant cakes? Do you know DD's DH is making her a birthday cake right now and all I was allowed to do was sit in a chair and coach him? Do you know how great that made me feel?

 

[babetoo]

did you know, i think that is super sweet. babe

 

[LPBeier]

Do you know I think so too?

 

[meshoo96]

did you know DH and DS made my birthday cake and the effort made me so happy?

 

[suziquzie]

doesn't your DH make great cakes?

 

[meshoo96]

oh, wold you believe he makes great cookies, but he's new at cakes, especially decorating them?

 

[suziquzie]

lol, was that a treat in itself to see?

 

[meshoo96]

can you believe it was?

(they decorated it light blue and put decorating sugar and coconut on the sides and edges to make it like ice and sow, the put a little penguin on top and ds did the words, but the frosting for the writing was too runny, more like flood icing, so it wasn't very legible, but i really thought it was cute and thoughtful and that's what mattered most, wouldn't you agree?)

 

[suziquzie]

wouldn't you rather have an imperfect home-made cake than a perfect store cake anyday?

 

[Nige]

Wouldn't depend on how imperfect the cake was?
Did you know I still can't get cakes to rise properly in my fan assisted oven :s ?

 

[cara]

have you checked if your oven is allright?
(My friend had the same problem and it turned out her oven didn't reach temperature)

 

[suziquzie]

is that like chiecking if the refrigerator is running?

 

[pdswife]

If it's running should you go out and catch it??

 

[suziquzie]

does yours run fast this early?

 

[pdswife]

Can I go check on that ??
