Ugg … I have all these half written entries staring at me from the right side of the screen. It’s both embarrassing and crippling. I’m sure that doesn’t make sense to most.
Anyway …
My daughter’s 6th birthday was this Wednesday. She had an odd cake request. She heard the song Single Ladies by Beyonce a while back, and just loves it … She asked for a Beyonce CAKE!! WTH?!? LOL!!! Who am I to say no though?? So, I gave it my best:
Now, I know, I know, that is NOT a Beyonce doll, but I’m just a mom with a budget, and I couldn’t see spending $30 or more plus shipping on a doll from 1998 on Ebay or whatever. So, off to the store M and I went. We scoured the aisles for a Beyonce lookalike. We ended up choosing the lovely Sasha from the Bratz collection, which was a MAJOR gift in and of itself. You see, until NOW, M has not been allowed to have any Bratz toys … I don’t find them all that appropriate for little girls … Sometimes one has to bend. *shrug*
I think it turned out pretty good, and The Divine Ms. M was delighted, so, mission accomplished. If you want to know how to make a similar cake, just google (or Bing!) “princess cake,” and you’ll find lots of pics and instructions.
Here’s a funny pic of Beyonce’s near miss:
AHHH!! FI-YAH!! Heh.
Just for fun, here are some pictures of cakes past …
