Cake Bake

Leia chose baking a cake over going to the movies today

so when my 25+ year old stand mixer gave out*

 Hiding Groot is one of the girls’  favorite kitchen games

we had to make an emergency Target run for a new hand-mixer.

Leia loves her new toy mixer and the cake seemed to meet everyone’s expectations. Looking on the bright side, maybe I’ll get myself a pretty red mixer to replace Old Faithful. 

* The motor is still good but the beaters no longer lock in place, which seems like a recipe for disaster (ha! baking joke😜). I’m bummed; I love that mixer.
