Hello Lovelies!
I keep waiting for the roller coaster to stop, or at least slow down, but the days and months and years keep speeding by.
Every few years I take a look at this blog space and decide if I want to post more often and how I want to shift it to fit the current version of myself.

We will love you always, Thelma kitty. Thank you for all the snuggles.
A couple nights ago our beloved Thelma passed away in her sleep.
She'd been struggling with a tongue tumor for a couple of months and we gave her the royal treatment until the end.
In no particular order, here are some favorite memories:
Thank you so much to everyone who visited, cared for, and loved her along the way.

Catching up on Princess Cakes - Happy Birthday Daddy!
It's that time of year again...
And now it's a tradition.
I've been a bit remiss the last couple of years in updating you about Daddy's Princess Cakes.
I'll remedy that now.
In 2021, I did the Boston Cream Pie theme again. "Plant-based" food coloring lent a subtle coloring to boughten marzipan. Again the high-octane white sugar of the marzipan clashed a little with the natural sweeteners of everything else.
The creme pat soaked into the cake making it moist and delicious.
