Words That Inspire
"Homemaking is surely in reality the most important job in the world. What do ships, railways, mines, cars, government, etc. exist for except that people may be fed, warmed, and safe in their own homes?...The homemaker's job is one for which all others exist." – C.S. Lewis (Jack)
"Fairytales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." – G.K. Chesterton
"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort." – Jane Austen
"How can it be a large career to tell other people's children the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No. A woman's function is laborious because it is gigantic, not because it is minute. I will pity Mrs. Jones because of the hugeness of her task; I will never pity her for its smallness." – G.K. Chesterton
"The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid." – Jane Austen
"Religious liberty might be supposed to mean that everybody is free to discuss religion. In practice it means that hardly anybody is allowed to mention it." – G.K. Chesterton
"I'm not afraid of storms, for I'm learning how to sail my ship." – Louisa May Alcott

This cake is officially Ian’s favorite. By far, he says. I think I know why. Ian loves chocolate cake and isn’t crazy about buttercream. Not only was this cake chocolate chocolate chocolate, but the “frosting” was actually chocolate pudding and … Continue reading
Allie’s birthday and Cake #19: Italian Cream Cake
It was Allie’s birthday last week (on the 19th), so of course I baked cake #19 for my wonderful friend for her birthday. We had the pleasure of spending the weekend with her and her husband and another couple good … Continue reading
#18 Grammy Cake
Based on the name of this cake, I thought it would have a graham cracker flavor to it, crushed graham cracker pieces on top, or something of that nature. Turns out it is the recipe of Julia’s Grammy, a chocolate … Continue reading
#17 Cassata Cake
I am quite pleased with how this one turned out. It was one of the easier layer cakes I’ve made, looked incredibly delicious, tasted wonderful, and though I messed it up a little, I was able to make it work. … Continue reading
