Nice first attempt. But, you really should take them out of the pan before you frost them. The perfect rookie mistake that will cause the wife/girl friend to ban you from future baking needs yet still endear you for the attempt. Your man card didn't take too big a hit.

Um...I checked the man vault and confirmed your card is still there, nicely tucked away in the back. You're gonna have to build an engine and an entire house to get it back so quickly. ;)

No worries Vic, every year for my kids birthday, since they were born I baked there birthday cake :eat:

This is ONLY because he likes to lick the cake batter from the utensils! He won't even let me bake him a cake, he wants to doit, even if I tell him I'll save it for him. He bakes his own birthday cakes because he won't let me, it quite funny! We laugh about it every year.

They are *edible*, but nobody really eats them.

Michael's Crafts - they carry tons of cake décorating stuff, you can buy ready made fondant and it's just like Play Doh.

Hey wait a minute, isn't not knowing what Michael's is...a woman card strike?

They have airplane models and X-acto knives, so I'm safe :D

Hey guys, no need to ever be embarrassed about making cupcakes. What people don't seem to realize, is some things associated with women, are actually male vocations. Most cooks, from gormet to fast order are men. Clothing design, men. Fragrances , men. Make-up, men. Women's shoe design, men. Hair care and styling...you guessed it, men. This is not to say women don't do these things too, it's just that many famous names in these industries are guys, so rock on with your bad selves. You may find you're really good at these things.

I can't even sew...can you iron? If you say yes, your more domestic than I am. The closest I can get to those tasks is I know where the dry cleaners are and how to drop off the clothes.



On a side note: IMO a man who can cook, bake, sew, iron and knows his way around a tool box is very attractive. The combo is rare and very much appreciated.

Lets see. I am no seamstress but I can run a sewing machine. In fact I was a certified Singer repair person.

I can Iron but why bother. You put your clothes in a bag on tuesday and they come back clean on Friday. Fridays clothes come back on tuesday. It is a great system.

I am challenged when it comes to baking. The stuff tastes ok but normally does not look great. I can cook but other than a holiday meal I really don't enjoy it.

No problem with the Tool box.

I also have this wife who is good at all these things other than Ironing.
