Cool Key Lime Pie and a Caramel & Chocolate Drizzle Cheesecake.
I made these for Father's Day for one of my friends. I got great feed back from them! Thanks Hall Family :-)

These were cookies that were full of My Daddy's stuff he likes :-)  Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Cookies!!!!

Not exactly what I had originally planned on doing with these cupcake but I think they came out Fabulous!!!

Today I decide to do some Italian cooking....move over Olive Garden make way for Lei Lei's Cuisine!!!!

This is my version of Alfredo made from scratch.
1. Saute mushrooms then add butter, cream, cheese and seasons to taste.
2. I cook both my shrimp and chicken separate and add to each person's plate.
3. I used 100% Whole Wheat pasta.
I forgot to take the finish product pictures.....lol I was so ready to eat by the end I just forgot!

Today I decided to practice covering a cake with fondant. It was not an easy task for me. I still have not got it down pack but I was successful in getting it on and smoothed out. I decide to do a black and pink cake. The board and the cake are covered in black fondant. The bear and dots are covered in bubble gum flavored hot pink fondant.

These are my first attempt of Edible Teddy Bears. I think they turned out swell. My two year old kept saying "Teddy Bear". Now I am working on a edible child topper.

Today I taught myself to make Cupcake Toppers for an upcoming Birthday Bash!!
I am excited that I sat there until I figured it out. I almost wasted $40 on a software that I bought from Target today. It is definitely going back after church tomorrow!

Today I am going to do some experimenting with some new cake decorating stuff I got a couple of weeks ago.....I am excite about using them...although may need to watch a couple of you tube videos.....My decorating classes were so long ago.

I have fallen in love with several event planning blogs:

Ok so I got a wild hair tonight and made chocolate cupcakes with butter cream icing. Then I decided to make some Chocolate Chip cookies made with European butter and my new favorite baking flour King Arthur! This is the second time I have used this particular recipe and I am sold it will be the only one I will ever use! As my son would say Omg!!!

Well it has been a busy week for me. My main job Registered Nurse has not allowed me any room for baking this week. I have to fill two orders this coming week. Plus going with my family to a water park Friday. I also am trying to put together a few events that are coming up soon. I will keep you posted.

Patterson Cookout

Well Saturday's cookout was a success although I got frantic when it appeared there was no help for me in sight. My son (the employee) went out of town...my other help ran into unforeseeable delay...my husband ended up being in a aau tournament at the last minute (Go Carolina Predators !).....But there is nothing like family...in the end it was good times, good food and a blessed family gathering. When is the next event.....um just not sure about that.
