first, rem and cars came over to bake a bunny cake for easter. i used the vanilla buttermilk recipe from sky high cakes and it did not disappoint. enough batter left over for 12 cupcakes. i whipped up some buttercream and let the girls go to town decorating. i think they did a fantastic job!
rather late (for baking) last night i launched into clothespin cookies for g. i cheated and used the leftover buttercream to fill them. they still tasted good but i'm wondering now if i didn't disappoint my brother. i just hate having extra frosting and not using it.
even later last night i began making the lemon blueberry cake from sky high cakes. a very fun recipe, it required a homemade blueberry lemon ginger preserve. the kitchen smelled delicious all even long as i worked on that.
i did substitute the italian lemon buttercream in the book with a basic confectioner's sugar recipe. i never ever ever have luck with italian buttercream.
a lovely easter day with the family all together. b was fun to watch though by the end of the day i was very ready for him to be sleeping. i want more of this weekend. it was a great one.
