swap



A few months ago Kimberly posted this cute stitchery on her blog. I fell in love with it and asked if she was going to make some to sell. Kimberly than suggested we do a swap.

Last week, we finally swapped our goodies. I made Kimberly the quilt posted for Quilt Monday and she made me this fabulous stitchery

It looks perfect in our family room. Thanx again Kimberly!

Easter Bunny Cake

this was my brother and my favorite when we were kids.

box cake mix(I use white or lemon)
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
Tray or cardboard, covered with foil
container fluffy white frosting
cup shredded coconut
Construction paper
Jelly beans or small gumdrops
cup shredded coconut
Green food color



1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Make and cool cake as directed on box for two 8-inch or 9-inch round pans.
2. Reserve 1 layer for another use or to make a second bunny. Cut 1 layer in half as shown in diagram. Put halves together with frosting to form body. Place cake upright on cut edge on tray.
3. Cut out a notch about one-third of the way up one end of body to form head (small end) as shown in diagram. Attach half of cutout piece from tail with toothpicks. Frost with remaining frosting, rounding body on sides. Sprinkle with 1 cup coconut. Cut ears from construction paper; press into notch on top. Use jelly beans for eyes and nose.
4. Shake 1 cup coconut and 3 drops food color in tightly covered jar until evenly tinted. Surround bunny with tinted coconut. Add additional jelly beans if desired. Store loosely covered.
