It's pronounced "fawn-dunt".

I had some fun at Michael's today.

Michael's is a craft store chain--you may have heard of it. I've recently been introduced to Hobby Lobby, another of it's kind and notably more extravagant, but my loyalty still lies with Michael's for my crafty endeavors--mostly because of it's proximity to my home.

I went with 40% coupon in tow and took in all the red and pink {for it is Valentine's Day this weekend, dontcha know?}

I left with lotsa baking stuff this time---please stay posted, for I will be wowing you (fingers xx) with some edible Valentine's creations that I will be attempting for my youngsters to take to preschool this week and also for a little V-day dinner. Sometimes, my eyes are bigger than my abilities...but I still try.


So, I picked up some fondant. Why? Because:

1) Paige and I {and the boys, sometimes} are HUGE fans of the Food Network Challenge--Cake show. Oh man, the edible art that these people create is...well, wow.

2) Paige has been dreaming of playing with fondant and making a fancy cake.

3,4,&5)Paige dreams of having her own cooking show.
And of our family having a cooking show.
And of creating a masterpiece on the Cake Challenge.

So, I picked up some fondant.

Little did I know that her response to "Guess what I picked up today?", followed by the unveiling, would be squealing, dancing, and bouncing...etc.

Actually, I kinda did know.

This is why I love her.

She is crafty.

She gets excited about food.

She is so my daughter.
