My First Cake

For my birthday I got myself cake decorating lessons at JoAnn's here in Ontario. Sooo....here is my first ugly cake!! I guess I don't really mind how ugly it is because I'm just trying to learn how to use the tips. I have to say.....this frosting is DISGUSTING!!!!! I can't even stand to smell it most of the time...it is so gross! Well, I guess that means I won't be tempted to eat it! The next cake is going to be clowns....ugh!! It's all about learning the technique, right??
