beginners cake class and letterboxing!!


i am back from my "beginners cake decorating class" and i must say, it truely is for beginners! i think i am wasting my money! oh well, maybe i can learn to make a pretty rose? although the way the instructor talked, with all the humidity down here, the roses in the summertime are gonna look like they need a good watering!!! we decorated iced cookies she had brought from the bakery and she had icing made up already! yummy!!!! she really needs to give me the recipe before i beat her down! anyway, doesn't matter. i was sure to take pictures of my last few cake projects ( i was curious as to know how much she might charge for them) and she didn't act too impressed but again...who cares! maybe next week will be funner! ? is that a word? funner? whatever!

okay on to the next topic...letterboxing.... anyone ever heard of it?? i haven't until tonight... it's too much to explain so go to http://www.letterboxing.org/ and read up on it yourself. it's really cool and a good way to spend some fun outdoor time with your kids! or your honey! my honey wasn't too interested til he actually saw me pull the box from its hiding spot (which was a very good one i might add!!) it was at the very back of a shady part (and i don't mean "hey the sun is out but we are under a big bushy tree" shady. i mean "hey, is that a drug deal goin down over there?" shady!!) part of a cemetary.he thought i had gone completely crazy and of course i decided to go off on this wild adventure as close to dusk as you could possibly get! PTL we all made it home safely and the boys are ready for their next hunt. we may try to do this in some of the towns on the way down to the beach next month. there are a lot of boxes hidden between here and there. and where we are gonna be. be sure and take a look at my picture. the boys are in the process of putting our "first letterbox find" back in its hiding spot. let me know if any of you are in to this and what you think about it!! toodles for now!
