ROY G BIV

For this post it will be ROY G BV, I wanted to make a cake and since we were going to a friend birthday it was perfect timing.  This cake needed a special occasion for a few of reasons:  first, it is not hard, but it takes a while to make. Second, it is a lot of cake and I did not need it hanging around my house.  Third, it screams take me to a party.  This is not just any cake it is a RAINBOW cake.  It just makes people happy. 

Typically I am not one to venture into a multi-step, time consuming bake-a-thon but I REALLY wanted to make this cake.  I tend to skip over directions or cut corners and lose motivation but not this time though and the end result was worth it.  All you need is two white box cakes, follow the box directions, food coloring and white icing. 

 I only used six colors, so divided the batter into 1.5 cups with 1 teaspoon of coloring each.
Most important tip: use coloring found in the cake decorating aisle at Micheal's or Wal-mart, the drop kind of food coloring will not give a bold color.
Also, spray your cake pans really really well, you want cakes that come out like this

not this
but
icing fixed most of the mishaps.
It was totally worth the effort!
Enjoy.

A Good Friday Prayer


We had all gone astray like sheep,each following his own way;but the LORD laid upon him the guilt of us all. Isaiah 53:6
Dear Christ Jesus you hung upon a cross and died for us
So that we might live for you
Your body was broken and your blood shed
So that we might be healed and made whole
You were faithful unto death 
So that we might be faithful unto life
Your last command was that we might love one another
One family together from every tribe and nation
A new creation united through your sacrifice
Redeemed by your blood
Healed by your love
United by your covenant of peace
In your death may we find life
Amen

Traveling Pants

 This spring my rapid rewards and Marriott rewards accounts have grown substantially. Thanks to the good sense of MD&M, Renewable Energy World and PROMAT for choosing locations such as Anaheim, Tampa and Chicago for their trade shows.  Not to mention personal trips have taken me to Washington D.C, Nashville and Madisonville.  It been a worldwind and I CAN.NOT.BELIEVE today is April 1, no fool'n.   Anywho, my suitcase is ready to be empty for a while and my car is tired of sitting in long term parking at the airport. Each location had beautiful views, so I leave with a few from each city.


PCDC Booth, the reason for each trip.

 The hotel in Chicago was very hard to leave, it was posh and spoiling, but nothing beats sleeping in your own bed.
