So, a couple of months ago it was my dad's birthday.
He came to Vancouver to see
We invited my cousin and her family over for dinner.
J loved baby C.
She took her clothes off and read/sang C Baby Beluga.
I made cake.
Martha Stewart's Versatile Vanilla Cake to be exact. MMMmmm...so good! My mom used to make us a white cake from the Purity Cookbook and it was scrumptious. Well, this one came close. My mom actually thought it was that recipe. But it wasn't. Because that one had shortening in it. This one has butter and a heck of a lot of eggs.
Sooooooooo good!
And the icing was Billy's Chocolate Buttercream, another Martha Stewart recipe. It was soooooo good. I remembered that icing can be frozen, so I froze half of the icing because, holy crap, I generously filled and iced a cake and still had a ton of icing left. Note to self: halve Martha's buttercream recipes in the future!
