It is kind of hard to plan a menu plan when the sound of any food just makes you plain sick. But here I go, I think my family still wants to eat this week even if Mommy is dealing with pregnancy “ickies.”
What kind of Mother am I? I forgot my son’s birthday is this Thursday. We have started a new tradition in our house by letting the birthday person pick the meals for the day. Sooo, that means our menu plans are changing for Thursday!

If you are going to do a sheet cake, you can use a coloring book to trace out the pattern onto wax paper, then use a push pin to poke holes in the pattern. After you have iced the cake with your background, lay your pattern down and use cocoa on a paintbrush to push the cocoa through. You will be left with a nice stencil on your cake.
It is a little involved, but I found it worked perfectly for my son’s “Where the Wild Things Are” cake. (As seen on my blogger profile http://ce-ne-bargainblog.blogspot.com/). Best wishes!
