Today was a bake day around here. It started with the baking 48 cupcakes, 24 lemon and 24 chocolate. The cupcakes were for a cup cake "cake" for a friend's son's baptism tomorrow. While the cc's cooled I got 7 jars of raisin & spice zucchini cake baked. Next I made lemon custard to fill the lemon cc's and the creme filling for the chocolate cc's. After stuffing the cc's with their respective goops, I made vanilla butter cream and Dax helped me make white marshmallow fondant; both to cover the cc's. There were three egg whites left from the lemon custard, so I whipped them with some cocoa, sugar cream of tartar and vanilla and baked meringue cookies with it. . .the kids say they came out "Awesome".
I was bushed by the early evening, so the kids and I went next door to watch a couple of movies on Mom's satellite. The weather was warm in the middle of the day (maybe it was the oven?), but now there is a very cool breeze from the West.
