Not together, mind you. But I've smelled like frosting for days and then last night when I was driving home, all I could smell was barbecue sauce.
Last night was our Young Women's dinner (and fundraiser). We (there were 4 of us) made and somewhat served dinner for over 100 people, so it's not surprising I went home smelling like something. We tried to make it as easy as possible on us, and had pulled pork sandwiches, salad, beans and chips. We lucked out and got pre-cooked and pre-shredded pork from my mother-in-law (thanks again!) so it wasn't a lot of prep work.
At the end of the evening we auctioned off cakes and other baked goods that people donated. That's where the frosting came in.
I spent most of the weekend baking, frosting, decorating, and frosting some more. I won't even begin to tell you how many cakes I had over the last few days, but it was more than I had to sell (one somehow was in my sink and I turned the faucet on it).
Anyway, I make a few 'Easter Egg' cakes (I only got pictures of two) and an elaborate (by my standards) 'Easter Basket' cake.
The cakes look great! Your dinner sounds like a lot of work, I bet you are so glad it's over!
