Routines and we need to break up...

I've yet to get back into the routine. I've not gotten into the eating routine (mostly eating junk) the cleaning routine (my house is trashed) the school routine (I just sent Ashley back today and almost forgot to pick her up) the spiritual routine (blah) the laundry routine (double blah). Seriously I don't know where to start with any of it. Add that to my message board blow up messing up my computer routine and I've had an aimless meandering week where I've accomplished nothing except sitting around getting fatter while I eat crap. Yes- I'm an emotional eater- why do you ask? Hmmm.. Help me find my groove!

I think I'm taking a couple days off the computer. I am getting too sucked in- it's so much easier to sit here then it is to face the reality of my life lately. I know that sounds depressed or something- but it's not- I promise. (At least I don't think). I've just got to get somethings done. Love to you all and I'll be back in a couple of days or so....

A couple cakes

I baked this weekend. Yay! I love to do it- but I have to have a reason. Several months ago we did a service auction at enrichment (women's group meeting) at church. I auctioned off a cake to be made for your special occassion. The winner had a missionary going to the Italy Rome mission and the custom is to have an open house type party after the sacrament meeting when he talks. So she wanted her cake for that. She requested a basic sheet cake. I asked if I could decorate it 'fun' rather then just a standard cake. She was fine with that. This is what I came up with:



The second cake I made because I had leftover batter. So I decorated for our friends that were visiting us. Not my best decorating ever- but it was fun:
