Happy 7/4

Well if I didn't have this blog assignment to work on, I would have just sat this one out like a regular day. I did all that partying and watching fireworks and stuff so I'm not missing anything. So I decided to make a Red, White, and Blueberry Poundcake for my wife and her work crew to enjoy. The link shows the original recipie but the picture below is the result of my modification to it.

I pureed the fruit in the blender instead of simply laying it on. Also, to make the stars, I put some of the icing in a little bag with a star tip from Micheal's Arts and Crafts to, of course, put the stars on.

This picture is from one of my previous attempts in which I fixed the fruit with the icing together in hopes the spread would be more firm but it faded the color quite a bit. I'm showing this picture however because the stars look better.

  1. Wow, that looks so pretty and so yummy!

    Kind of random to see money and deodorant in the same picture as food, haha.

  2. Well, that day I brought the cake to the bedroom to show my wife and went right for the camera afterward. I wasn't even thinking about the scenery, I pointed and clicked.
