I love to cook and I love sharing the recipes I find and my experiences, but for some reason I can\u2019t get into a routine of actually posting about them.  I take the pictures and write down recipe changes, but then I procrastinate and get insanely behind on my posts.  My poor blog is over a year old and I feel like it is extremely lacking in content.  My wonderful husband has also spent a lot of time helping me create a blog that I really love and tweaking every little problem out of it.  So this lack of posting is something that I really want to work on.  I know that being out of work for the past 8 months has really had me focusing on a lot of other things, but I need to remember what I am passionate about and not let my job frustrations get in the way.  I need to use this as a way to focus on other things.  I am setting myself a goal to try and post at least once a week, if not more.  I always find so much inspiration from other food blogs, so I want to be sure to contribute back too.<\/p>\n<p>If any of you notice me slacking again, feel free to post or email me and tell me to get my butt back in gear!<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so I am not going to just leave you with that.  I mean that would be a pretty boring post.  I have to at least leave you with a picture or two.  Back at the beginning of the summer I decided to take a Wilton cake decorating class.  I took course 1 and had a good time with it.  I am not sure if I will take any more because I honestly prefer to make cakes that taste delicious rather than always having to slather them in a thick coating of butter cream.  It was fun though and I learned some great techniques.  So, with that I will leave you with a photo of my final cake from course 1.  Oh, and in case you wondering, it was no special cake in terms of a recipe.  I don\u2019t even remember what I used because it was made more for decorating purposes rather than for eating purposes.\u00a0 Stay tuned though b\/c I do have a delicious cake recipe that I will be adding soon!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-620\" title=\"cake 3\" src=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-3-685x1024.jpg\" alt=\"cake 3\" width=\"288\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-3-685x1024.jpg 685w, http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-3-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-621\" title=\"cake\" src=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-685x1024.jpg\" alt=\"cake\" width=\"288\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-685x1024.jpg 685w, http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-622\" title=\"cake 2\" src=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-2-1024x685.jpg\" alt=\"cake 2\" width=\"430\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-2-1024x685.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/foodietwoshoes.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/cake-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 430px) 100vw, 430px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have once again fallen off of the blog train.
