WE had severs storms pass by us too last night. I think we are in the same area of the country more or less. I live in Mt. Airy, NC. Can you share with me what state you are in? Many of your post speak of places I am familiar with.
Frosting: I think I've posted this go-to buttercream before. It's 1/3 c. softened butter, 2 c. powdered sugar, 1 t. vanilla, 1/3 c. cocoa, and 2 or so T water. To get it nice and fluffy, use the electric mixer.
Hi, I tried posting this before I don't think it worked, so I'll give it another try ...
Just wanted to say that I love your blog, Anna. I really don't even know you, but your blog was passed on to me by a co-worker. Looking at your beautiful photos and creations is a bright spot in my day.
That sounds like a wonderful day. I am not to far behind you, I will be 40 in a few months. :) You inspired me to start running again, now training for a 5k. Thanks Paula
what a wonderful day....
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect day to me!
