FNCC wishes everyone a happy and prosperous 2011!

Happy New Year!

Someone caking tonight?

Happy New Year to all the FNCCrs!

No cakes here for me tonight. We're clearing out the mess from our all day "Noon Year's Eve" party. We had a bunch of our friends with kids over, got a bouncer for the kids & toasted the new year at 6pm along with Sao Paulo Brazil.

Yeah, they're all on another thread, wondering where you are. I put the link on there to here, so they should be by soon. I guess not everyone knows, yet, that you don't usually start the club until around 10:30 Eastern.

I'm not caking tonight. I'm here to wish everyone and their families great blessings for the New Year.

Noon new years - FABulous idea! Everyone can be safe at home before the drunks are on the highways.

Hi playing,
I've only been starting the FNCC between 10:30 and 10:45 Eastern Time Zone for what 2, 3 years now?

lol

Dear Kris on the other thread,
Frankly I've never had bc refuse to cream together. Well, maybe at first, but crank up some power on that mixer. What type of mixer are you using?

Happy New Year FNCC's! I'm working on a b-day cake for my "adopted" Grandson. He turns two tomorrow and is very excited about cake! Guess I've better get back to it, I don't want to disappoint the little guy!

Awww New Year's baby. (missed the tax deduction for that year, though . . .)

Happy New Year everyone!!! I'm spending a quiet evening at home working on a wedding dummy and baking for 3 tastings on Sunday. Hooray for Engagement Season!

Making dummies - now that's what I should be doing tonight. I've got four wedding shows in four weeks. I'm not only exhibiting, I'm on the show organizing committee.

Cake club? What is it? How can I join? Caking and clubbing ....

Diva,
We're here every Friday Night beginning between 10:30 and 10:45 eastern, for anyone up caking (for Saturday deliveries usually) who wants someone to "talk" to for company late at night and to solve problems and bounce ideas off each other. Been doing this thing right here on the Cake Decorating Thread of CC for quite a while.

PS you just joined.

Cool!!! This is great news!!!! I will be here! Happy New Year!

happy new year. just trying to tort and ice a cake for my neighbor before tomorrow.

No cakes tonight. I'm snowed in alone on New Year's Eve. My boyfriend is only 45 minutes away but snowed in where he works. We are suffering from 32mph winds, -24 degrees wind chill, and over 6" of snow in last 24 hours

Oh my jenng,
that sounds bad even for S. Dakota. What's the weather on a normal day?

No cake for me tonight. I received a lovely cold from daughter as a Christmas present. Can't wait to regift to my family tomorrow at our big family gathering tomorrow. LOL j/k.

I wanted to make a cake for the gathering but felt it best to stay out of the kitchen except to make hot tea.

LeahS -

Such a shameless solicitation for votes! LOL!

Am I too late to cast mine your way?

Theresa

3...2...1...

Happy New Year! Forehead kisses all around from me!

Now get back to that cake!

Leah-Sorry I didn't know the start time of the club. I've seen it pop up but never ventured in. Didn't have a cake to make on a Friday 'til now. LOL
I have a Kitchenaid. It just doesn't seem as creamy smooth as batches I have made and it took forever to mix together. Usually I do just use crisco but with the weather being nice and cool lately, I thought I would mix half and half with butter for a better taste. I figured maybe it was a butter problem and it not being warm enough or something.

I did some 2011 cupcakes for poeple I work with, we all had to be there and couldn't be home/or out tonight for New years so I tried to bring some fun to work for my co workers, pictures are posted Happy New year everyone.

Playing-I just keep getting hooked on more and more forums! LOVE CC! I'm hoping ringing in the new year working on a cake is a sign of things to come.

Happy New Year everyone!
I feel for the snowed in folks... we got about 14" here in New Mexico from about noon on Wednesday until early this morning, then the clouds moved on and it's about 3 degrees outside. We are supposed to hit -8.
No cake for me tonight, but I did make a fun and great tasting cake for Christmas... I used the zebra stripe method and made a red and green/cherry & vanilla cake and let the kids (neice and nephews) use stencils and colored sugar to decorate it. Easier than cookies and a bit faster LOL.

Question -- I've been trying to upload my entry into the wedding cake contest and it's been loading for almost 2 hours... is this normal for this site or should I reboot and try again?

I just wanted to pop in an say Happy New Year to all my fellow CCers. For all you folks getting the snow, you must be getting the storm that passed thru CA last week. Man did we get a lot of rain!!!! Hope you guys do better than we did. Us CAians are sissies when it isn't sunny!!!!!

This cake is going to have to kiss it's lucky BC if it doesn't end up against a wall!!!! -Vent-
