The Bella is Baking!

Bella got her Easy Bake oven for Christmas last year, but dummy Mommy completely spaced the fact that the thing runs on AMERICAN light bulbs. The kind you positively cannot get over here. (dammit!) But luckily the lovely Sue Ann came to our rescue and mailed off a box of 100w bulbs - thank you again!!! We had put her oven in the corner of the "dining room" and promptly forgot about it. But Bella didn't forget....and I relented in using it on Saturday night. Bella had had her bath early and instead of playing, she was BAKING!!
This face? Yeah, pure excitement!

Oven pre-heating and prepping for cake mixing.

Teeny, tiny amount of batter! I remember them being bigger!

But Bella is doing great!

The oven is ready!

Bella slides it in!

Time to whip up the frosting!

And lick the spoon!

Cake is now baked, cooled, and frosted. Time for...

SPRINKLES!

TA DA!!!!! Bella's first cake!

To the victor, the spoils! Totally Bella approved!

Next up? Brownies!!!

Lucky girly! I never had one of those growing up. Don't think I really wanted one, now that I think of it. I was always too busy reading, kinda like I am now.... ^_~
