Happy Fourth of July!
Today we're celebrating both America's birthday, and that of my nephew, who is turning 6. Happy Birthday!
Recently I've been to Dickinson to watch "The Taming of the Shrew," I'm in the middle of creating a "Perry the Platypus" birthday cake for my nephew, and continue to search for a job.
"The Taming of the Shrew," as put on by a brand new theater company in Dickinson, ND was fun to watch. Although it began sprinkling right before intermission, at which time we moved indoors, it was good to see some theater again.
The birthday cake will be "Perry the Platypus," from Disney's Phineas and Ferb cartoon. My nephew likes the show and I get a kick out of the platypus and his antics. I'm going to try to make some marshmallow fondant from a recipe I found online. If that fails, it will be good old frosting from the jar. I'll try to get a photo to post once it's completed.
The other night my husband's best friend came out to my parents place to shoot off fireworks. He bought the good ones, no weeny little fountains, haha. I didn't take any photos, but they were pretty amazing. I've always been enthralled with fireworks, so it was fun to watch. I'm even more excited to get to set some off myself this evening. My husband says I'm a bit of a pyromaniac. Haha, I tell him I'm not enthralled with fire, just making things explode.
Well, I think the cake should be almost cooled by now, so I better get back to it before I have little kids wanting to help. ;-)
Have a safe and happy 4th!
~ God Bless America~
