I visited your husband's blog and saw the pictures of Mandy!!! She is so cute.
Thanks, Carolyn. I'm going to try to make this before Ted's birthday, when there's no pressure (although I don't know *when* there won't be pressure between now and the middle of next month). If he likes it, this could be his new birthday cake. His favorite now is red velvet cake with whipped cream icing, and I jusr CANNOT make a decent red velvet cake. So I buy it and feel bad.
I LOVE red velvet cake even if it is made badly. MMMM.
And Bearette, Mandy is a cutie. She'll be even cuter to me when she is finally housetrained. LOL
We got A's present today...hehehe... your going to love it.... *smirk*
