Lillianne's Birthday Party


So on my sister Lilli's Birthday, she asked me to make her a cake, and choo know me, I would do anything for Familia. So the night before her birthday, I made the cake part so I could decorate it on her birthday. Choo know what? I made it a checkered cake with pink and white on the inside, so when choo cut into it, it looks like a pink and white checker board! Pretty cool right? On her birthday, we celebrated by opening presents and going to one of her favorite childhood places... The Witte Museum! She loved it. Later, we went to San Antonio's High End Specialty restaurant: Bill Miller's BBQ. <3 that place! :) We finished the celebration with Ice Cream @ Baskin Robins-- it was great! But what about the cake? So right when we got home, I went to work. I did the fondant, piping, and designs. Then my Ma and sisters came over, and we all thought there was something missing. Then Ma said, "Whattah 'bout Flowers?!" and my sisters were like "YEAH, YEAH," so we all went to the kitchen and made fondant roses, and choo know what ... it wasn't that bad-- not perfect, but not bad! In the end it looked GREAT! That's how CHOO bake a BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!








We're on a "ROLL"

Hey everybody!!! So today I'm making PIZZA--homestyle baby!-- and it's an ol' family recipe, so choo know it'll taste great. So while we (my Familia) were making the dough, we thought to make a little extra so we could have homestyle rolls-- and they were HUGE!!! Like the size of a football, I mean BIG! But before we were able to bake anything, the dough had to rise, so me and Gramma got out ALL the stuff to go on the pizzas. I mean, we had it all from  Mushrooms to Olives, Sauces and Cheese and all kinds of Meat!!! Now my family likes veggies on their pizzas, but for me, I like the meatlovers-- OH it was awesome!!! Choo just can't beat the taste of homemade Pizza!!! BOOYAKA!
