Time for some cake, maybe.

We recently celebrated Brock's 1st birthday with a little 'lunch party' that consisted of Adler, Luke and I.  I attempted to make a boxed cake with canned frosting.  Needless to say it was a complete FLOP....literally as I was trying to stack cupcakes together they flopped over and as I tried to frost the cupcakes the frosting was so hard and thick it ripped off the top and sides and it flopped onto the plate.  The only thing I could do was quietly giggle and hand it over to Brockster, knowing he would not care what it looked like or tasted like.  Then he proved me wrong!  As he grabbed the frosting it stuck to his hands all over that he was upset.  Ahhhh my attempt at his 1st cake was not a good one, one I hope to not repeat.  I did add a few colorful sprinkles to cover up the mayhem that existed on the plate. 

The bad part is that I bought a bunch of the boxed cake mix and frosting thinking I could go the easy route for the actual big party (plus it was on sale!), but knowing how bad it turned out I prayed I still had that darn Target receipt (for we all know I despise Target's return policy) and I would return ALL of it (which is what I did).  They asked me if anything was wrong with the cake and frosting and I told them they should not sell this bad food and that Duncan Hines 'sucks' and their frosting is worse! haha
