Amazing desert in an hour!

My husband told me last night that he needed a desert for today. Well as I was making it I thought I would share with you my super easy Christmas wreath cake. I've been making this cake for years, and its always a hit!

So here we go. Take a box of chocolate cake mix I like the Betty Crocker Chocolate Fude Bake to directions I put mine in a bunt cake pan so that it has a wreath look to it. but you should just as easy do this with a sheet cake.





Once the cake has cooled,  take a regular can of frosting. I like the classic white from pillsbury but any will do. And put it in the microwave for 30 seconds and stir if its not totaly melted but it back in for 15 seconds. Then pour very slowly around the cake. I use about half of the container.



Next get the baby candy canes at your super market the ones that are in the loose celophane.


Take a spoon a and wack the candy cane with the back of the spoon. It should be in tiny little pieces when you are done. I used 3 of these tiny candy canes for this cake.



Finaly sprinkle the candy cane bits over the cake. And thats it your done. Super easy and Super quick!!!

Oh Time managment and other such musings....

Ok so here we go again! A list of what I want to improve about my self. Ready? Here we go... Time Management... why is this such a hard concept? The boy is 6.5 and for the most part self sufficient. So why do I feel guilty if I don't spend my every waking and honestly sleeping breath with him? Finding time to play wife, mother, photographer, travel agent, crafter, house keeper and sometimes blogger... I have joined on the Happy Planner train although in all honesty, I really just do it because it is a quick craft that makes me happy... I'm really not using it to its full potential. Self Esteem... Oh Good Lord where to start? I have only this week realized that my self confidence is low. I have to say that I have the most amazing husband who builds me up in such a wonderful way! The problem is that even though he is saying sweet words of encouragement I constantly think he if full of shit. So in addition to the Time Management I intend to work on my Self Confidence.  I h...
