We were so excited to get our "Official Invitation" to Rae and Scott's "Official Wedding Reception". This is going to be sooooo much fun!
For those of you who do not know the story here it goes.....Rae Clarke & Scott Boutte' were married on November 28, 2008 in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida with immediate family attending. They have been planning on a reception thinking about May at the River Lot and I am so glad that they are planning on having it at The Stones River Country Club March 7th. (because of the weather) I love the theme....Mardi Gras. Scott is from New Orleans and it fits them so well!!!
They are serving Dinner and Patti had asked me to make some goodies for everyone to enjoy after the main meal. I will post them and pictures of the reception later on....one hint.....Chocolate, Chocolate, and more Chocolate! (did I mention Chocolate)

Playing Post Catch-Up....

Kellie Rowland had asked me to make this Baby Shower cake that is above. She had sent me a picture of a cake she saw on the Internet and asked me to make it just like it with our own little twists....instead of baby feet and toes she wanted baby ducks, with the bows tied on the corners, I used a real bow that is pale blue that says "It's A Boy", and finally at the end of each colored stripe, I put a white pinwheel to make it look Spring is around the corner.
(picture e-mailed by Kellie from homeandgardenwebshots.com)

Michelle Prater is the sweetest friend and loves her family! Her nephew Kevin was celebrating his birthday and she just can't stand it unless they have a cake! I love Michelle and her loving, sweet heart! Happy Birthday Kevin...You have the Sweetest Aunt Ever!

Happy Happy Birthday!!!


Kristie & Dewayne McCormick's son is celebrating his birthday today and wanted a Halo 3 cake. They love my secret recipe chocolate cake and she asked me to combine the two emblems for the Halo 3 game series. I said sure...no problem!
Happy Birthday!!!!

Happy Birthday Trey Cantrell

Trey's Mom Holly called and asked me to make his birthday cake and wanted the Dibrell Wildcat's basketball jersey. Trey played on the 5th/6th grade boys team and they won the season and the tournament this year in the county. When Katie was playing for Centertown and the boys would play Dibrell, we'd usually stay and watch. Congrat's to Dibrell's boys and a Special Happy Birthday to Trey!!! (the cake was yellow as well)
My husband said that when they came to pick it up yesterday tha they were sooooo excited about it! I am so happy that it made his birthday perfect!

Here Comes Cupid Sneak Peak.....Part I & A Birthday or Two....

Ray Dunn celebrated his 16th birthday while he was in Disney World with his family last week. He's having a party for his friends tonight and wanted to have movie night. He had called me himself and asked me to make him a "Special" cake. These were the spec's.....My Homemade Yellow cake with Butter Rum flavor. (this is flavor and does NOT contain any alcohol) He said that he wanted it to look like the old time movie canisters. I down loaded a picture of what he wanted and he got his wish. I hope you enjoyed your party tonight!
Michelle Prater had sent me an e-mail last Friday night and asked me to make her brother Kyle a birthday cake for his 18th birthday on Sunday. She said that his favorite colors were red and black and to do my "usual homemade chocolate cake". Happy Belated Birthday Kyle!!!

Seeing Double? Well.....there's another person getting this same tray and guess who it is?.....This cupid can't tell yet!...But I can tell you who got the next one identical to it!

She asked me to make her a tray with my Dipped Pretzels, Blinging Homemade Sugar Cookies, and my Strawberries dipped in Chocolate.
The chocolate that I choose to use is the #1 Gourmet chocolate ever made! It is absolutely DIVINE!

I just had to do a little "Happy" tray for two of my most favorite people in McMinnville. Mr. Hubert and Mrs. Billie Gray Boyd. They are so good to me and my family. This is just a little "Thank You" for making a contribution to my son Dillon's Mission Trip Fund (he will be leaving in July to go to Baja Mexico for a mission trip with our church). It was so funny....the very next day Mr. Hubert and Mrs. Billie Gray asked me to join them for lunch. Me and my entire family absolutely love them!!!! So....I had to share a little treat or two with them.
This cutie pie goes to a special someone tomorrow! Strawberries all dressed up and delivered in a beautiful heart-shaped glass tray.
