Kid Sister Bakes a Cake

This past Friday, I was invited over to Casa de Kristin and Frank's for some doggy playtime (their dog, Lucy, is Gordon's girlfriend) and to help Kid Sister bake a cake from scratch. Kid Sister has got her very own list of things to do and make a cake from scratch was one of them.

Frank turned to me halfway through the process and said, "You're really being a big help here, Katie." I explained to him that I was there to DOCUMENT this important day, not to impose on someone else's dreams and ambitions. Plus, I was doing a really good job at helping Kid Sister finish this bottle of wine...

The cake was a Chocolate Spongecake that she layered with Cream Cheese frosting in the middle and on top. All made from scratch. It was absolutely delicious. Frank and Kid Sister enjoyed toasted coconut on theirs, I opted for plain (shocking, I know). We decided that next time, we (and by we, I mean Kristin and Frank) would add chocolate chips in the mix for a little texture. Don't worry, I'll be there to document - and taste test :)
