Yesterday we had our ladies luncheon at church.   Edna Ellison was our guest speaker and we all had a great time.  Please enjoy our pictures from the day:

I am going to start trying new cake recipes and will eventually start working on decorating cakes.  (For some reason I think I can teach myself how to do this!  LOL)  Anyway, today was my first day and I plan on taking these to my kids at church tonight to give them a try.  I know they will give me their honest opinions.  

Here's the recipe I tried and a picture to follow:

Basic Yellow Cake

1/2 cup shortening
1  1/2 cup sugar
Mix together
2 cups self rising flour
1 cup milk
1 tsp. orange flavoring
2 eggs

Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

I used a star tip to make a simple decoration on top of the cupcake.
