Princess Doll Cake
Every year I make my daughter’s birthday cake. Last year she wanted a princess cake for her birthday and as an obliging mom, I made her one. Since I’ve never made one, I decided to use the Wilton Wonder Mold Kit. It was really easy making the cake using the mold. The only problem I faced was trying to decide how much cake dough it would take to fill the mold. Once I got it figured out, it was a piece of cake!
Trader Joe’s Meyer Lemon Cookie Thins

Gosh, I can’t stop munching on this Meyer Lemon Cookie Thins from Trader Joe’s!! They are so good!! They are thin and crispy and the lemon flavor makes it so refreshing. Since it is so thin, it is almost like eating potato chips!! These are are available at Trader Joe’s for $4.99.

Turning photos into canvas art
Ever since little princess was born, I think I am obsessed with taking her photos. Every smile, every movement and even temper tantrums! Hey, what can I say, she looks so cute! Anyway, when I was cleaning up my hard disk last week, I realized that I have photo overload and I haven’t done anything about it. I really need to organize those photos and start printing them out and hanging them all over the house. I am also thinking that I want to convert some of them to canvas art like these at Canvas Press.

Looks nice, doesn’t it? I just found out that I will get 10% off my order if I order them this Saturday. I had better start looking through my photos to select a few.
