Hey everybody. Tomorrow is Sean's 11th birthday, and he wanted to make shark cupcakes for his class. He did the design, and the work with very little help from mom. (I was in charge of mixing the icing and cleaning up after.)He mentioned several times that he was just happy to spend time together, which was a nice way of saying I'm neglectful.
note: that is NOT lipstick. remember, it's impossible to sneak tastes of black icing and get away with it.
Here he is hard at work. We discussed how assembly lines work, and I think that after cupcake #15, he wished we had a few extra people on hand to pitch in
The finished product! Rather good, with sufficient blood and gore. That always wins over the 5th grade crowd.
note: doesn't the granite look fab?
Here is an oddity. For some reason, Jeff and Yoda like to walk around the house like this. Either the cat thinks he's a parrot, or Jeff was warming up a cold shoulder. People do the oddest things behind closed doors.
Front view. Neither of them look like they are enjoying this.
Pop is smiling because his cholesterol dropped from 240 to 118. Mom mom is smiling because Pop is smiling. Danny has stuck to his diet and is exercising regularly. He pleads with all of you to do the same.
As you can see here, my darling Tangles is too big to fit on one stool, so she overflows onto two. She has done well on her diet and now needs a kitty body lift to take care of the loose skin. I'm very proud of her.
Until my next posting.....goodnight.
Amy
