You have to step by my blog ... well, you don't HAVE to but I would highly suggest it ;-)<br />I am doing a roundup on tea-projects all September long ... so there might be some you could use for your party. There is already a post up for cupcakes in teacups - which I think is SO cute. And this weekend there will be a post on a teapot pinata - I think on Sunday. But not sure. Scheduled it yesterday but memory is not working anymore as it should. Too many things to do!!!<br />Well, I am VERY curious what you will come up with and if you post anything tea-related in September let me know so I could feature it ...Ms Muffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16419580728085716299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-30296642714921790072010-08-30T21:00:41.304-05:002010-08-30T21:00:41.304-05:00we're doing a tea party birthday party this ye...we're doing a tea party birthday party this year too!

I've had the same disappointing experience with a number of junk foods. Anyway, cake mix is a decent shortcut for someone who doesn't have baking experience, but frosting is SO easy to do that there is just no excuse IMHO. :) A simple American buttercream has only three or four ingredients, and exact proportions don't matter! Or just frost your cakes with whipped cream; you add a bit more powdered sugar than you would when using it as a topping, is all, to make it stiff enough to hold its shape when spread. I beg you to give it a shot; it will vastly improve the taste of your cakes, whether they're from a mix or not.<br /><br />By the way, I've been baking pretty much all my life but (at 41) I am just learning to sew, and finding your blog a fantastic resource.hollymlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15702582545876341930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-64335796055334126792010-08-23T21:53:17.274-05:002010-08-23T21:53:17.274-05:00Thanks, you guys.

So much passion! <br /><br />Sula - making stuff sure does slow things down a bit for the birthday girl - it makes her pause long enough to own her party. That's the part I like - her slowing down a bit, I mean! <br /><br />Laura - It's supposed to be a surprise, as long as she doesn't sneak a peak at the blog!<br /><br /><br />hollyml: Erk! Sorry to disappoint you - I use canned frosting in all my cakes! But only the Betty Crocker Whipped Butter Cream one. All others seem to taste like toothpaste. At this stage in my manic life, I've resolved that if I don't use cake mix and canned frosting, I will never make a cake!LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-56178786442814518602010-08-23T17:39:29.859-05:002010-08-23T17:39:29.859-05:00oh I can't wait to see how this unfolds.

I might have to steal that idea for my daughter's next birthday, although by that time she may be reading well enough that a list will do. :)<br /><br />I have to say that anyone with as much skill at makin' stuff as you have is NOT allowed to buy canned frosting!!!
