Lightning McQueen Cake
One of my friends from NorCal pinay asked me to make a Lightning McQueen cake for her son, Kasey. Of course, I confidently said yes, since I've made a character cake before. My very first character I made was Dora and that was for my daughter’s 4th birthday. I remembered the pressure I had on making the Dora cake not to mention the extra color and very limited tips. It was so hard to create but I'm quite happy with the result. Saying yes to Joanne on making the lightning McQueen, I was confident I could make this one because I thought it would be easier. I was right when I said a lot easier than the Dora but this didn’t prevent the pressure of completing it on time. I suggest you give at least 5 hours and have extras tips, just so you don't need to rush and this will give enough time to make the cake pretty instead of sloppy. I was having a hard time creating the #95 and can't make the lightning bolt right, if you check the picture above, it will explain a lot but still happy with the results and I always enjoy making cakes. And my daughter wants me to make Lightning McQueen cake for her 5th birthday. As usual she's excited about her birthday but it will be awhile... Anyway, we went to Joanne's birthday party.

Good-bye Dad ... Today is the burial of my father in-law, Jim. It's so hurtful to lose someone special and to know you will never see him again. In a positive way, he's now in good hands with the Lord. I will miss him...while I'm updating my website I remember him. He's one of my avid visitors on my website. He always visit my website and now I lost one avid reader. He is my mentor...he helped me with my English. I'm so glad to get a chance to know him. Dad, you will remain in my heart forever. Thank you for accepting me the way I am... Dad's Obituary is in the Sacramento Bee (and their website) http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/sacbee/obituary.aspx?page=lifestory&pid=128390783
NorCal Pinay Father's Day Blast
The NorCal pinay had a surprise party for the husbands. or should I say some of them since a few already have idea about the party. This is different from the previous parties we had because on this event, the husbands were to be the star. The wives should have something special to say, sing or give to (dad, husband, father, grandfather or father-figure) Raquel went around to each table and she let everyone get a chance to speak. I thought if I'll sing, this for sure, a surprise for Chris and it was indeed a surprise for him. I was nervous but I manage to sing till the end of the song and of course Chris knows that I am extremely nervous... The dinner started at 6:00. we had plenty of food and drink....I had a blast...the food and the dancing was awesome. We had a blast! The entire group put a lot of hard work and effort into our two garage sales as well as into all of the details on this event. We did it to honor and show all of our special dads how important they are and how much they are loved. View Father's Day Blast 2005-2008 cnlane.com |
