Why, I'm using fondant to dress a potato up like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever, of course! Doesn't that sound perfectly normal to all of you?

(This is for a school project with my son, by the way. I'm not COMPLETELY loopy. Just SLIGHTLY.)

What are you guys doing?[/i]

I'm hoping it will come alive like a California Raisin and boogie all over the countertop.

My DD has a paid cake to make for tomorrow. The teachers at ther high school have hired her a few other times. Thing is, she has to work until 8:00 pm, so dear old mom baked the cake and will crumb coat it for her, to give her a head start. She'll have to do her own FBCT. I did one last night and my hands are killing me. LOL

Your potato project sounds like a blast! Make sure to take pics! icon_lol.gif

Didn't that take away from your cake decorating time?! No, but seriously, you guys are so good starting your spring cleaning! I should take a lesson from you and go dust something...


hahahahaha. That was a good one. I crack me up.

Anyway, the potato man is about done, and I'm trying to get a good picture of him so you all can see, if you'd like.

Your potato is GREAT! It made me smile. Perfect pose!

I'll be starting to bake one of the layers of a cake I have to do for a party coming up and watching the new episode of Gray's Anatomy.
