In happier times, before the kake sampling began. This red velvet cake, with a DELICIOUS secret ingredient in the frosting, was fun to make because Kirsten and her trusty KitchenAid came to the rescue. (I don't know that I've ever made frosting from scratch before. Or a cake, for that matter.) So fun! Check out the swans filled with Red Hots...yum!And while my cake got points for sentimental value (honoring the upcoming nuptials of Lloyd & Dianne--the FIRST wedding in our new building), it didn't win. An amazing peanut butter & Oreo cake with chocolate drizzle was the clear crowd favorite, meaning that the youth group leaders win again this year. (They're gonna' be so conceited.)
Oh, and the karaoke...who knew it was so much fun? If you have to be up all night, sick to your stomach, it's no small mercy to still be chuckling at the thought of "Love Shack" and "Crazy Train"...and your sister performing"Play That Funky Music, White Boy."

Sounds like fun! I feel so out of the loop here (I guess that has to do with living half way across the country) because I didn't know about Lloyd's wedding! Please tell him congrats!
Len would have LOVED your cake. Red velvet is his fav!
Does this "kake & karioke" replace the pie & talent night?
Betty Crocker, with dimples! What a pretty lady!
Love,
Mom
P.S. The cake is nice, too.
