I just don’t think Jaxon is meant to have a 1st birthday cake!
I made two cakes tonight plus 4 cup cakes.
I happened to be feeding Jaxon while they were in the oven. So I’m sitting there waiting for captain “take my sweet time eating” Jaxon to drink his bottle…while calling out to Tim every five minutes to check the cakes.
WELL!!
In between his last check and the final check the top cake burnt! That was sort of *ok* because I am going to cut the top off of it anyway and use it up the other way. So I don’t stress about it.
But when I go to take it out of the “tin”…which isn’t a tin because it’s one of those stupid a$$ silicone things that are so SH!T it’s not funny…the top breaks off of it.
So now I have no base for my cow.
That’s ok says I. I’ll make another one.
Except I have no more self raising flour left and it’s 9pm at night. Now there are dissadvantages to living in a small town, one of them being that everything closes early. I’m cruising around from petrol station to petrol station hoping that just one of them will sell SF flour.
But no. It seems that no one cook’s enough cake’s these days to warrant a place on the shelf in your local petrol station. OR…people who DO make cake’s plan well enough ahead that they don’t run out of ingredient’s at 10pm at night!
As I said, it just look’s like Jaxon is not meant to have a cake for his first birthday!
Ah! SF = Self raising flour! Don’t worry about it Boo. It’s really the adults that enjoy the first birthday cake. Master Jaxon would be just as happy with a biscuit. Or alternatively the cat’s food.
You’re making him a cow?? How? Do you have specific directions? Love to see it….
