Day 228
Made this cake for a friend's goung away. It's not the prettiest but it took only 3 hours to make from scratch to leaving for the party so not too shabby considering time restraints. And a big thanks to my fella for being a great sous otherwise it would've taken me like 5 hours ( I get distracted easily and usually end up scorching white chocolate)
It's a white chocolate cake with a rose buttercream frosting. Everyone tought it was tasty. Next time I'll use rose extract instead of water. The water ( even after putting in ~6x what the recipe called for) gives too subtle a flavor.
This was my first time making a buttercream. I think there will more of this in my future once the weather cools down some. I iced the cake and the fella did the decorations.
Hope you're having a great day.

Day 196: Thread Theory Arrowsmith undershirt
Sorry it's been so long since I lasted posted. I unexpectedly got to Haiti at the beginning of July for my Grandmother's 80th birthday!!! Thanks to my amazing aunt and uncle.
So, while I did not make all of my goals for the free pattern sewing month, I'll still be sharing what sewing I have been up to.
First off, I'm sharing the tank I sewed up for my fella using the FREE men's Arrowsmith undershirt pattern from Thread Theory
(Please excuse the scraggly thread.) I think I did a pretty okay job lining up the stripes on the fabric too.
The fella was getting bored so he started making silly poses. This one is my favorite.
The Arrowsmith tank seems to be great for the Florida humidity. He likes it as lounge wear. I'm seriously considering using this pattern to make a ladies tank dress.
Hope you are having a great day!
