who better than Jon Stewart - aye?

 

 

wow - Susan is pretty hot too

 

 

 

isn't that true

 

 

 

brilliant idea

 

speaking of kids

 

 

as an ex-chemisty teacher

I think everyone with kids should do this!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and an idea for the holidays:

 

 

this is my favorite small house of the month

 

and these

 



are some of my favorite people

that I have never met

 





 

isn't this a great one of Frida with dreds?

both of these were new to me

 

nature

 

 

 

 

so beautiful

 

 

 so amazing

 

 

 

 

love you for listening

 

 

 

 

 



cake decorating take three

 

 

 

this week we really cheated - we bought the gingerbread kit

(to use up last weeks frosting we said....)

 

 

 

it came with lots of candy for decorating

 

it even came with fondant

the magic frosting of the Cake Boss we had been wanting to try

 

 

check out the front door - fondant

 

 

the kit came with a great sticky frosting

we called cement

that held the house together really well

 

 

it also held on candy and various other things on

 

somehow we did not even use last weeks frosting

who ever heard of pink or blue snow?

 

 I think we got

majorly involved with candy placement instead

 

 

 looks great!

 

what do you mean mom won't let us eat it......!!

 

*****

 

I started looking at other gingerbread houses

 

 

 

wow

 

 

there are some amazing

ones out there

 

simple ones

 

 

using gram crackers



 

 

 very sweet

 

 

and yet are so cute

 

 

and would be fun to decorate

 

 

here are some of my favorites

 

 

once again I am awed and amazed by peoples creativity

 

oh and we have a recipe for the frosting
