Super Bowl yummyness

I got these wonderful Green Bay and Steeler flag printables from http://makemerryevents.com/blog/page/2/

I made up the SuperBowl 45 flag.

Not my best pictures ever, but you get the idea.

These were yellow cake with dark chocolate frosting and dark chocolate candy melts for coating. I used royal icing for the stitches and fondant for the ball ring things. 

Thank you make Make Merry Events.

God Willing and the River Don't Rise

I used to live right on the the Mississippi River in St. Paul. Loved it! Miss it! But this year.......Looks like there may be major flooding. The husband & I went for a walk in the old 'hood last night to take a look at the rising levels. They're predicting that Shepard Road (part of the Mississippi River Road that runs the entire lenghth of the River) will be closed & under water. Not good.

Stairway to duck bliss!

This is USUALLY a walking path.

And don't let anyone tell you the bridges in MN need any work. Not true. They're all just fine.

This guy support a railroad bridge that is used all the time.
