Birthday again!

Finally the birthday. Duckie requested a roast with potato gems. I had to do roast potatoes too for Peekers. It's just not a roast without the full works! Here is Duckie enjoying the highlight of a roast (according to Dad)- a chew on a bone!

And here is the cake. She picked one out of the cake book but after 2 failures I gave up on using the dolly vardin tin (I think it was a combination of the useless oven and the shape of the tin) and just made 3 round cakes which we glued together with icing and cut to shape and then decorated. It turned out pretty good if I say so myself. I am not a Barbie fan which is the usual doll for this cake. I did have a fairy doll which got lost in the move so a quick trip to $2 store and found this. $2 shops are sadly lacking in Kal. There are 3 but they are not the great source of homeschooling bits that I have come to depend on in Adelaide. But this time they turned up trumps. This doll was perfect especially for the size of the cake. Duckie Loved it!
