I made the cake this weekend for my mom’s birthday and it was delicious! I have a question though, my cakes didn’t rise nearly as much as yours did. Everything was still delicious when it came together, but the cake was a little dense. Do you have any suggestions as to why my cakes didn’t rise?

hi ashley! first off, your cake looks WONDERFUL. i may or may not have just pinned it onto my board with the caption “this looks glorious.” i cant wait to try it – clearly, you have a knack for creating goodness

i realize that i don’t know you and you don’t know me – that i came across your website from pinterest, but just in case you would like my point of view, you are welcome to it:
i was also dealing with these funks – i know that insecurity runs rampant upon women. c.s. lewis says that “comparison is the pure thief of joy.” but really.. it sucks. it’s not fun. just remember that God specifically crafted you into the person He wanted you to be. to wish that you were someone else is pointless and self destructive: A. you’re never going to be that person B. you are unrepeatable; there is a magic about you that is all your own. God created you EXACTLY how He wanted you to be; no apologies, no regrets. YOU are someone special. YOU were hand crafted by your maker. REJOICE in these deficiencies and allow them to bring you closer to the security of Jesus Christ. Beth Moore has a book called So Long Insecurity that i found to be pretty interesting.

i hope this helps some have a beautiful day
