One.5 fails and 1 very big win
Aug. 27th, 2021 02:52 pmThe cake is adorable. I'm quite pleased at my cake assembly skills. And I'm getting better at frosting them.


But the cake itself... we have work to do. This guy would have sent me home for sure. I'm not even sure I baked it long enough. And the frosting is kind of a nothankyou.
But, looks? 10!
So tomorrow will be banana chocolate chip cookies for sure. I've already promised the banana that it will be his turn. He smiled.
But, how's this for a WIN!! I ordered these little socks from Amazon. My one pair that I've been wearing 24/7 needs a wash! Plus, I thought these would be better. Thinner. Not as hot. And I could easily slip my feet into my sandals with them - for going down to get mail, or take trash, etc.
When they arrived, turned out they are very excellent. Just what I hoped and just right. Except. White. I'm not even happy about the white cake, white socks is just asking for trouble. And they only come in white. But, wait... maybe I can reverse engineer...
And, I did!! I cut one up to make a pattern (had I been really bright, I would have made it without having to cut, but I wanted perfection). Then studied how they were put together - which seams went first, etc. And bingo bongo!!
A Not White pair!!

Biggie approves.

There will be more made for sure.
