Do not laugh at me because I am absolutely serious and determined to make an awesome cake (and I am feeling crafty/hungry at work). My Martha is coming out, ha! I looked up these cakes at Oak Leaf Cakes to get some ideas.
They seem quite simple. Cookie monster- just do some messy frosting and cookie crumbs! Ice cream cake- ice cream cones just stick into the side of the cake! Everyone LOVES ice cream cake... maybe I could just put ice cream on the cones... Great thinking!! Hello Kitty... EASY. However, if you know me, well you know that I dream big, not realistically :) For example, at Christmas time my hometown friends and I get together to decorate and build gingerbread houses. My friends have made FANTASTIC houses. Amazing really... Darin, Al and Matt even made the Campanile!

Nope. My embarrassing creation was with Landon. Skyscrapers, impressive eh?! Yeah, those aren't made out of gingerbread. Our house crumbled. Our lean-to crumbled. We were resourceful and used the Dot candy boxes. Just a little frosting and voila!
Not going to lie, my first year was the best with Carl as my partner. We made a lean-to because well it just wasn't working. So I thought next year would be better...
So maybe I will struggle with this cake decorating idea. However, I do know my roommate, family, friends, and classmates better my cake glue-- Frosting :)
