We are also one step closer to being done with the upstairs Bedroom. Yesterday I installed the paneling on the knee walls and am very impressed with how it looks. I think it makes the room look a lot better

I had a good class on Wednesday we learned how to make Pound cake and a simple frosting. We learned how to use the creaming method. Being that it was the first class, we learned some basic pipping techniques. We learned how to make drop flowers and other simple decorations.

I had my cake class on Wednesday. It will be a fun class and I'm really looking forward to it. We are going to learn a lot of basic decorating techniques and basic cake baking skills and methods. We each get to bake and decorate our own cake and or cupcakes next week. We are making pond cake and cup cakes and we'll be bringing home around a dozen cupcakes and some small loaf pound cakes. Minus the large amount of cake that will inundating my house I am very excited about this semester.

After two weeks of break from school we still have two more weeks to go. I have done some baking, but I've been concentrating on my house and finishing the up stairs so we can move into the Master bedroom. We decided to add a closet and desk space to the Master bedroom
The desk space will be to the left of the closet. I'll be finishing up the last few coats of spackling today and tomorrow, then hopefully sanding will go smoothly and I should be able to paint Saturday night or early next week. After that I can put bead board on the knee walls and trim the doors and move in, before I go back to school on the 18th. That's two weeks so I should be able to.
Christmas was lots of fun, my two little girls had a lot of fun opening their presents. We went to my mom's that day, after we opened things. What a good dinner we had, there was BBQ'D spare ribs, and potatos, corn, a few different types of salads. Then for desert we had lots of good stuff. I made the pies and we had, Pumpkin, Sour Cherry and Blueberry, and Billy made the pecan pie filling. We had angel food jello cake and as always ice cream.
Since the semester ended I've made cookies and bread twice, pies numerous times. I am starting to think I should just make our own bread and stop buying it but that probably will not happen for a long time, due to the lack of time.
