Bouncing back and forth between Kansas and Colorado keeps us busy, happy busy! The hollyhocks, poppies and elephant ear are loving all this rain we are having! We planted a couple of "knock out roses" anxious to see how they do. The Blue Heron's hang out at the fish hatchery every evening for supper, don't they look pre-historic? We celebrated a couple of family birthdays and brother-in-law doesn't like chocolate (can you imagine!) and my niece does ,so I went with strawberry and chocolate cakes. Using my stainless steel roaster ( forming a foil wall between the two while baking) got the job done. Finished off with buttercream frosting (have you ever made it? scrumptious!) and both were pleased with their cakes. This is a great way to feed a crowd, plenty of cake for all. Have you noticed summer is zinging by?!!!! Enjoy these happy sweet summer days for they will be just a memory before we know it!
