I can't do cake...even from a mix. Every time I try it turns our horrible. I can't ice either. I am very crafty, and can pretty much do anything with a paint brush, but can not for the life of me figure out how to translate that over into a cake icing masterpiece. I can tell you how to do it, but can't do it myself. I know tons of tricks. I even took a Wilton Cake class...no dice, still can't do cakes. SOOOOOOO...when one of the kids birthdays comes up, I just go to WM's bakery and we let them pick something out.


LOL I had to LOL at this one because every year on my birthday my mom tries to bake a cake for me and it always gets ruined somehow.. some years it's burnt to a crisp, other years it's burned on the outside and raw on the inside.. LOL I've been giving her a hard time for years about it and now it's a running gag.. My older brothers or my dad.. no problem... it's just me.. LOL LOL LOL

This made me chuckle, because I am just the opposite when it comes to cake. I throw together a box mix and people are falling all over themselves asking for the recipe. I don't know why they always turn out great, I just follow the instructions and don't do anything "special" to them.

And I don't even like cake that much. There's the irony.

I can't spice an apple pie to save my life. Even if I follow a recipe, it just doesn't taste right. MIL, in her mercy, gives us several jars of canned apple pie mix every year so all I have to do is dump it into a crust and bake.

Fried chicken. I am a good cook (per hubby) but for some reason I cannot get this right.


I stink at fried chicken too. Hubby just asked me the other day why I never make fried chicken. Luckily, he is good at it and will fry some up occasionally.

Oh you had to go and bring that up.

I love country fried steak, but alas. Can't cook it to save my life.

That's what Cracker Barrell is for.
