The decision to make this cake was made 2 days before it was due. 🙂 So I didn’t really have much time to plan and as usual I didn’t know how I was going to decorate it.  The only thing I knew was that It was going to be a small cake; enough for about 12 people and I wanted it to be less complicated then my previous cakes.
This birthday cake ended up being a 6 inch double-layered round cake. It was a fun one and everyone loved the results.
It’s time for a free kids workshop again from Lowe’s Build & Grow Clinics 😀 Their upcoming free kids workshop will be this coming Saturday, October 8th, 2011. The free kids workshop will start at 10 am until they’re out of kits, but to make sure your kid get a free kit, make sure you come on time or even a little bit earlier. Some projects are more popular then the others & will have a lot of kids waiting in line to receive the free workshop kit.
Last week, I posted a free kids workshop from Lowe’s. Now, it’s Home Depot’s turn with their Kids Workshop 🙂
The Home Depot Kids Workshop is a How-To Workshop that was designed for kids ages 5-12 years old. The projects vary, such as fire trucks, window birdhouses, mail organizers, bughouses, etc. Other than a project kit, each child will get a kid sized Home Depot apron & an achievement pin.
A few Saturdays each month, Lowe’s has free workshops for kids called ‘Lowe’s Build & Grow Clinics’. All of their projects are recommended for grades 1st-5th.
The projects vary & sometimes they belong to a series.
If you think the art pancakes I posted about before were amazing, your jaw will drop seeing all these other art pancakes. They’re beyond amazing. These pancakes are more artwork more than pancakes for eating. I know I would feel bad if I had to eat one 😀

Last weekend I made these two birthday cakes for a brother & sister, Sammy & Karyn, who were sharing a birthday party.
The birthday cakes were each 3 layers of 6 inch round party sprinkle cake with whipped icing.
There have been times when I watched an animated kids movie and I decided that it was not a good movie for my son.
The “Kids In Mind” website is a great tool to use when trying to decide what they can watch. Instead of rating a movie based on simple age restriction, “Kids In Mind” rates movies on scales of 0 to 10 over 3 categories; sex & nudity, violence & gore, and profanity.
This is Berkeley-based artist Gregory Kloehn. For the record I have a house/home. Not a big one but I like it. What I find interesting is this question of what makes a home.
This is a cool idea. I wonder if it would be a good idea to do it with used cooking oil.
