So as you can see from my last blog, today was my mom's birthday. The girls like to celebrate birthdays. So they convinced me to find a recipe for a homemade cake and icing and make mo a birthday cake. They wouldn't accept that I didn't have a cake mix...so I searched Allrecipes and found a scratch cake recipe (The White cake variation) and then searched and found a recipe for icing (we did half butter, half shortening, and used regular brown Vanilla) and together the girls and I made a cake.
They stayed up past their bedtime in order to blow out the candles and enjoy a small piece of cake.
So with that, Happy Birthday Again Mom! We all love you, and it looks like we will be having a yearly birthday party in your honor! Here are the pics of the cake! As a side note, this was one of the best cakes I have ever eaten. I have never made a cake from scratch, and this one was amazing! You should definitely try it if you like cakes! It is a handy recipe that has multiple variations for different kinds of cakes!
