A portrait of my daughter every day in 2014
We spent the afternoon in the boonies visiting horses, kitties and celebrating her Grandmas birthday. She watched her uncle splitting wood, fed the horses grass, and even got to take a nap with a few cats. Also she had cake for lunch, so her day was pretty much perfect.

Found a recipe that I would love to see you try – then you could tell me if it is crazy difficult or just looks that way:

It doesn’t look too difficult to me, just detailed and a bit time consuming. I think the mold would be key. From reading the recipe I would guess it’s a lot easier to make them with the mold then by hand.
