Call Me Crazy

As many of you know, I'm an extremely busy person. Too busy, in fact, to make a cake. And WAY too busy to make two cakes in the same number of weeks. But I had an itch that needed to be scratched. I wanted to try this fondant recipe that I found, and it was SO easy. Here is my first attempt at a cake covered in fondant.

I made an almond poppyseed cake and filled it with vanilla pudding. It was so moist and yummy. Then I covered it with fondant and decorated with cute little polka dots. Voila!
Jake surprised me early Sunday morning for Mother's Day. When I got home from work waiting for me was the most beautiful Calla Lilly Plant (my favorite). I'm hoping that I'll be able to plant them and they'll actually grow here in Colorado.
Jake is ALMOST done with all of his exams and such. Here is a poster he has been working on that represents all the patients he's seen in the last year. Can you believe he has seen over 1500? Crazy. Good luck on your presentation tomorrow, honey. Then it's time to PARTY!!!

You are tooo talented! Let me know your fondant recipe. I have made a marshmallow fondant before and it turned o.k., but I am always looking for something else.
