RE: Making Fake Cakes
I used to work in a bakery with my sister and we always used styrofoam. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes and they can be cut for what you need if you are making odd shapes. We made an icing with just powdered sugar and shortening since no one will be eating it there is no need for the butter or flavoring but you can color it. Fake crumbs you can crumble cookies or crackers and we used fake flowers sometimes. Hope this helps ... View related article.

RE: Shopping with Cash
I have decided to do this too. I have a job at a factory but I also work part time as a waitress and boy does that change add up. The other day I had 5 dollars in quarters alone. I keep the change seperated in baggies and when I have enough I do a roll instead of waiting til the cookie jar is overflowing. ... View related article.

Peanut Butter Pinwheels
Powdered Sugar
Water
Peanut butter
Make a dough with the powdered sugar (you don't need to add much liquid), dust the surface with some powdered sugar and rool out the dough like you would for sugar cookie cut outs. Spread with peanut butter. Roll and cut into 1/2 inch slices. Keep these covered or they will dry out.

I don't know where they get the potato thing at sounds gross LOL ... View related article.

HOMEMADE BISCUIT MIX

Sift flour and measure. Sift again with the baking powder and salt.

Cut in the shortening until the mixture has a fine even crumb. Place in a closed container and keep in refrigerator, using as desired.

This mixture will keep at least a month in the refrigerator. It will yield five batches with two cups of the mixture to the batch. It may be used for biscuits, dumplings, shortcake, waffles, muffins, quick coffee cake, and dozens of other things.

RE: Indiana Christmas Charities
Not sure how far they go but I live in Fairmount Indiana and we have a group called the Helping Hands. Every year they put out applications around this town and a few surrounding. Fill them out and turn them back in and if you meet their requirements(low income, elderly etc) They bring you food LOTS of it and gifts for your children. They are wonderful even though I am very low income I try to put money in their jars when I can. ... View related article.

RE: Police Party
Check out your dollar stores they always have cop and robber stuff for the kids like little badges, handcuffs etc. Maybe make a black and white stripe shirt to make your Mom look like a jailbird. You could use black licorice on a cake to look like cell bars. My sister works for the sheriffs dept and so does her fiance they are getting married next year and she (a cake decorator in her spare time) is making the grooms cake like their squad cars. Hope you have fun! ... View related article.
