Ooops!

Just to give a glimpse of how crazy my life is right now, here's a true story. Last week I felt like I was running with my head chopped off. CRAZY BUSY! Well we decided we would make time to go to dinner with some friends. Paige had a soccer game from 5:30-6:30 and we were meeting our friends at 7:00 at a pretty nice Sushi (For Idaho Falls) place. Dinner was great and we had lots of fun. It was nice to get a little break. After dinner Brad and I had to run to the store. As I was walking in, I felt a little unbalanced like I was limping. Well, I look down and I have two totally different shoes on! I show Brad and he said "Oh my gosh, you can totally tell." One was brown, one was black. One was pointy, one was square, one had a skinny tall heel and one didn't. We laughed for a while and then I wobbled back to the car. I must get a grip on my life! What a dork I am.
Here's the shoes!



For all you who wanted instructions on the pool cake (see previous post) Here they are.

I first baked two cakes in a 9x13 pan. Let them completly cool. Now I used homemade whipping cream as the frosting. This was the first time I did this and it wa sooo Good. The kids liked it better than frosting. Cool Whip will work also. So cut out the middle of only ONE cake, leaving a two inch border. Add a layer of whipping cream to the bottom of the same cake and put it on top of the other cake, the one that you didn't cut. ADd the rest of the whipping cream to frost and use a decorative finish. I used so it looked like waves. I used teddy grams with gummy lifesavers for the people. You could do anything though. As for the water. I used two boxes of the blue kind of Jell-o and I used the speed method. Put in fridge until almost set (almost like egg whites) When almost set, carefully spoon the jello into the center. Refridgerate until completely set. It won't ever completely set, but will get firmer than an egg white. Have fun with it! Let me know if something doesn't make sense.

Too funny! Thanks for the cake instructions, we will have to try it sometime. We have used cool whip & pudding for frosting & it's really good too. You make the pudding using the pie recipe so you use less milk, then mix it with cool whip and it's way better than frosting.
