Mavis and Hotel Transylvania

Today's cake is for Natascha, who loves Mavis and Hotel Transylvania. I had to google the film, as I had never heard of it before. I think I might have to buy it, sounds interesting. Anyway, here is the cake, had real fun making it.
Happy birthday Natascha, hard to believe, that the little girl I met years ago shortly after we arrived in Shanghai, is turning 10 already

My first foray into blogging

Hi everyone,

wow, I'm starting to blog. Never thought I might do that. I don't have a clue, what I will write about and where this blog will take me. A bit about myself.

We live in Shanghai and have been here 10 yrs. Living here is not always fun but always challenging. We meet a lot of interesting people, and unfortunately have to say good bye much too often as well. I spend a lot of my time in front of the computer or in my kitchen. I make novelty custom cakes (keeps me out of trouble) and love crafting things, as well as reading (thank you kindle)

I'll attach a couple of pictures, just to find out how it goes, I must admit, I'm a bit computer challenged, so please bear with me
