So excited to share this cute cake I discovered over at Better Homes and Gardens! Head over to their website to grab the complete recipe and instructions on how to make this adorable owl cake pictured above. My son turns 5 in July… I wonder if I can get away with making one of these instead of a Lego cake? Probably not LOL. So, I’ll just have to come up with another good excuse.
Here’s the link to the recipe…
Thanks to our fans for sharing this photo with us on Facebook! I was able to find a few different recipes and narrowed them down to what i thought was the best resources for you guys. First, I found a cake mix that will do the trick. I only think it’s available online though… but the price is right. (Duff Tie Dye Cake Mix)
I also found a video recipe over at the Cooking With Karma channel for those of you who want to take a more DIY approach.

Our hanging birthday reminder project is one of our most popular posts of all time. So, when I saw this more sophisticated version, I jumped on it and made sure to share it here. Kim from Tales and Tips has provided us with a free printable that we can edit and fill in with our birth dates before going to the print shop. Love this simple design and also LOVE the hanger she mounts the chart on the wall with.

After one of our facebook fans sent me this picture of glittery cupcakes I just had to do some digging and try to discover the recipe for the edible glitter! I cam across two really great resources… the first is a place where you can just buy it outright… (Amazon – disco dust).
Then I found several tutorials on how to make your own disco dust and I settled on this one as the best I could find and had easy to follow instructions. Feel free to share your own favorite recipes in the comments below. Thanks!
