Quick Cartoon Character Bundt Cake Is Perfect For Birthdays!
Introducing my ten minute cartoon character bundt cake for a guitar themed party. Of course you can use my simple formula to make a cute cake that works perfectly for you, and best of all less stress and more time to focus on other equally important aspects of the party, like decorations, which after all really make the party. Quick birthday cakes are the best kind really, in my opinion, after all it does get eaten……okay it is true you have the photos to remember your efforts, but in my book going for a larger scale wow factor with decorations is time more well spent. It may be that is…

Five Minute Cake Decorations In A Pinch!
One of my dear nephews from New York was coming for his last shabbat with us before heading back to the USA after a two year stint in Israel, so I just had to make him a good-bye cake! The only problem was that the house had been turned upside down with Pesach cleaning, we had some construction done which added a layer of ground dust to the upside down state, I had to go to a Bar Mitzvah celebration Thursday night, we were loosing a hour due to turning the clocks ahead………oh, and of course the cake and the cake decorations had to be made before sundown on Friday,…

Quick Soda Bottle Clown For Purim Or Your Circus Themed Party!
I'm quite sure how that happened, but Purim is in another week plus a few days, and so it is surely time to get crafting for Purim, right? Okay, truthfully I have been crafting, just not stuff that I can share with you at the moment, or have yet to photograph, which is usually the case, phew! I tried to photograph something quickly before the sun went down, but since the project wasn't quite finished I think I'll share it with you in its entirety tomorrow. In the mean time I realized there may have been some projects that I did last year and hadn't shared, and yes, sure enough,…

Quick And Cute Birthday Crowns For Any Age, Any Occasion
Every birthday party deserves birthday crowns, and now you can make some super cute ones in a pinch, which believe me is exactly what I did this past Friday! As the maker of a birthday party for a grandpa and his first grandchild, I though it would be just the greatest to make crowns from them both……one with the age and one with a question mark. Funny enough the grandpa didn't quite get it and we had to explain it to him! In any case the crowns were a big hit, and a great addition to the party. I will surely make more like these for years to come, and…

Paper Boats Make Perfect Birthday Party Decorations!
A few evenening ago I was reading a Curious George story to a little family member, and when we came upon the part where he folds up the newspapers into boats, well we just had to make some paper boats of our own. As it turns out this simple origami paper boat activity kept this very active three and a half year old glued to the chair, and he kept asking me to make more and more. He helped a bit by running his little finger along the edges to crease the paper, but was otherwise just plain thrilled to observe the process. Fortunately I was able to sneek in…
