My Grand National Wedding cake entry is pretty much done. I am going to add some pearls in part of it but that is minor and shouldn't take much time. My small wedding cake is iced. Tomorrow I will make a test of my tasting entry and maybe bake my cookies. Parts of my royal icing entry are about done. Is that all? yes I think that's it. Actually for being so busy I'm in good shape, my mind is pretty calm, and I have until Friday to finish up. My kitchen area is basically a mess, clean but stuff out that I need to use. I do have to make another batch of royal icing tonight.

My grand daughter about finished her cake entry. She had some pieces she made that weren't dry enough to attach yet last night. She will have to attach them just before we drop it off. My grandson finished his entry. I have to say I am amazed at how well things are going. I have been eating well, just not really eating enough. I get so busy I forget to eat, and drink too unfortunately. I am up from my last weigh in, but I know I was severely dehydrated then. I am a bit so still but better than I was.

Next weekend at the fair though is totally cheat days. The fair only comes around once a year and I love the foods. I might not eat a whole lot of it but I will have tastes of all I can. I'm not worried about it at all. Its not like that type of food is around all the time!

All I can say about my calmness is I gave it to God, and Matthew 11:28 says Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. I feel like we've got this. After next weekend I will post all the pics. Hope you all have a great week until then!

Thank you everyone. Made a test of my baking entry tonight. Thought we had small group for church and they would taste it there for me but it was cancelled so I had to taste it. My caramel was a bit too hard. I think my thermometer was off. So tonight went out and got a new one and made a new batch of caramel to test. My grands are going to have some awesome treats if Hubby doesn't take them to work and they get eaten there!
