I grew up in the 80's. There was a lot to love about the 80's but I must say that I have fond memories of coming home
from school and watching the ABC "After School Specials"
Remember those....aaahhh they taught me a lot about life.
One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE "After School

Remember learning how a Bill became a Law??
Here...watch this BLAST from the PAST..
Well, this 4th of July I was thinking of something
fun and different to do and during one of my reminiscent delusions of grandeur while sleep deprived watching old School House Rock shows on You Tube with Sophia I came up with this...
"I'm Just a Bill...Living on Capital Hill"
Say what you will about "government", may you be RIGHT or LEFT, SQUARE or ROUND,
I think we can all agree that
our COUNTRY is pretty darn awesome.
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!
This was super EASY..I just wrapped up a rectangle piece of white fondant as a scroll for "Bill" and then used Edible Food Writers on White Fondant for the saying, "I am Just a Bill". The tassel on Bill is twizzler adhered with a little corn syrup!! The frosting is red buttercream (mycakeschool.com recipe of course...) and piped with a Wilton 1M!!
See you all SATURDAY for a fun and EASY
Star Spangled Fruit Tart!!
