In Honor of Aunt Emily...



In honor of all things FROZEN...I attempted an ice-cream cake. To my best efforts, with mom's apron and all...it is done. Good tasting, well, that is to be decided, but it is done. I do have to say it fared better than the Red Velvet Cake!

It does look better on the Williams-Sonoma box, but hey...it's my first try right? The boys...Owen...to be exact...is the reason I haven't given up completely.














He LOVES my BAKING...how ever uneatable!! (even if it is to just lick the bowl...and that's okay with me) Perhaps that's why I have boys and not girls? Don't know how I married a cookbook author's son, but I did. Luckily NOT being able to cook is not held against me, at least not that I know of.












ANY WAY...happy birthday Aunt Emily...we froze a piece of cake for you!!

ha. i'd always wondered how to pronounce that strange last name i kept seeing on emily's blog: the "Ourphsxons". now i get it. i had no idea this was mike and angela's blog.

and i just can't wipe the smile off my face looking at the little mikes and the ones that couldn't possibly be even related to mike (but are so obviously "related" to their mother!).

good to see what you guys have been up to.

awesome. awesome. awesome. So when do I get it? Did I mention I didn't get a slice of any sort of birthday cake yet? But look at you pulling through [again].

So bummed I didn't see this yesterday!! but a little happy it was "saved" for today.


Seriously the cutest [ok i may like the teary one a tiny bit better] picture of Owen. Do your kids always sit in front of the oven if you bake?

you're pretty fabulous.
