I've been going through some old pictures and found these. I love to cook and at one time was into cake decorating and candy making. I also made and handpainted the candies around the Cookie Monster cake.

In order -

Cookie Monster cake

Dinosaur Cake

Vegetable turkey

If you only knew... this wasn't a one time thing, like oh, isn't that cute. I don't think I have a single normal picture of this child, she was always doing something, like the time she started wearing masks... :bugeye: My ex stole most of my old pictures, even the ones before we got married. :devil:

He has the pictures of her imitating vegetables.
 
How do you imitate a vegetable?

There is no way to explain it. You have to see it. We have her on video also.
 
How does she do photosynthesis? :biggrin:
 
i love the one with the sweatshirt on her head! i have a picture of my daughter at age 3 with her Little Mermaid underwear on her head like it was a hat, and she's grinning from ear to ear. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner to upload it.

The decorated food is exceptionally well done. I especially like the T-Rex and the turkey. They have also made me hungry.

So that's what they make turkey-vegetable soup out of...

Are you related to Gale?

Ask BT; he has it down to an art.

You need to get a scanner! I'd love to see some kid pictures. Ooooh, and your crafts! I used to do a lot of crafts, so I'd love to see yours.

Thanks zoob. I can't find the garfield cake I made.

I could make a purple jellyfish cake! And an edible brush shelter. :-p A turtle cake for Doc Toxyn and a sheep cake for danger and artman. I have several ideas for cakes for Moonbear. :biggrin:

Did it really? :rolleyes:
Maybe I'm just trying to confuse you.
 
  • #23
Maybe you're trying to confuse me because I'm the one who confused you so the reason you want to confuse me is because you're in a state of confusion and my confusion plan did work.

Confused?

A weird, purple jellyfish cake would be exactly what is needed for the upcoming celebration of Alfred Einstein's Anus Mirabilis, 1905. 2005, this very year, is the 100th anniversary of his publication of On The Electrodynamics Of Nocturnally Roving Herds Of Weird, Purple Jellyfish. Your cake would be the centerpiece and hit of the celebration!

I used to decorate cakes too. I don't know if I have any pictures of them. I made them when I still lived at home. One of them was a bear. :biggrin:

Oh, that just gave me a great idea. Would it be way too weird to have an egg and sperm wedding cake? :biggrin: Yeah, as if I don't have enough trouble finding guys, that request will surely scare away any I've gotten that close to the altar. :rolleyes: But it would still be fun!
