The Mill Creek Ward Young Women are teaming up with Troop 163 Boy Scouts this year and holding an auction to benefit both organizations and raise money for this year’s programs. The auction starts at 6pm on Wednesday, April 6, 2011 and stops when everything is gone! That Little Cake Place is donating 3 cakes for the event, so we hope to see you there!

#1 – A White Chocolate Strawberry Cordial – The ultimate combination of succulent strawberries and white chocolate… in a cake! Win the bidding and take this tasty treat home with you the night of the auction. *bite-sized mini-cupcake samples will be there for you to try.

#2 – A Triple-C (Chocolate Caramel Cake) – Ooey, gooey caramel, rich fudge, and knock-your-socks-off chocolate cake in one decadent package. Win the bidding and take this tasty treat home with you the night of the auction. *bite-sized mini-cupcake samples will be there for you to try on this one, too.

#3 – The ‘Boid’ (Eagle Scout Cake) – Since this is also an auction to benefit our Boy Scout Troop, it is only appropriate that we should auction a cake for an Eagle Court of Honor. Win the bidding on this cake, choose the flavors and design, and tell us when and where, and we’ll provide one rockin’ cake for your scout’s Court of Honor!

But wait… there are other nifty things there for you to bid on to support our youth and their awesome programs. Join us for a night of food, fun, and fundraising for worthy causes at the Martinsburg Chapel located at 1050 Lovelace Way in Martinsburg, WV.

We did a baby shower cake last week for delivery on Saturday. This was our first order through the website! The whole thing was done in colors selected by our client for a baby boy. She wanted baby items on the cake (like bottles, diapers, binkies). When It was done, it looked a little bare on the top (no pun intended) so I added a little sleepy bear in footie pajamas and a little tail.

A new look for the blog

After creating thekookycakelady.com and seeing the original look next to it, I finally decided to give it a look that worked better with the website. What do you think? We also decided on a new name seeing as the website is emblazoned with "That Little Cake Place" already. I think I like it.

We're still working out the bugs... you know, tweaking the pages until I'm satisfied with the layout and content, adjusting pictures, adding, deleting, updating... the list is endless. Who knew html was so much, uh, 'fun'. Yeah, that's the word I'm looking for. Fun.

*digs through the pile of books for the 'HTML for Dummies' edition*

Yeah, lets go with fun.
