Life Lessons - Sweet
Sugar makes everything better.
Although my kids have been asking for pieces of cake, all they really want and eat is the buttercream frosting. But isn’t that where the joy is anyway? What’s cake without frosting besides boring and less tasty? Besides, who can’t do with a little sweetening from time to time?

Mmmm I love buttercream frosting. My daughter is weird though, she likes a little frosting, but will scrape most of it off and give it to me. LOL
I used to scrape it off just to eat it, now it’s nearly reverse as I get picky about the right ratio of frosting to cake…LOL

funny you should post about this….when I buy frosting I buy two tubs..one to frost the cake/brownies with…and one for Miss Sam to put that extra coating of ’sweetness’ on that she likes…I know…bad mom, bad mom, but it is as you say….that’s the fun of having cake/brownies….the frosting
Absolutely! Double the fun double sweetness right?!
