Don't Hate Me Because I'm Fancy.

Happy Birthday to me!  In honor of the day, I took cupcakes to seminary and used my new Open Star Tip (Wilton 1M) to tart them up.  Fancy Schmancy?  Yes.  Easy Peasy? Even more so.

I saw some beautiful rosette cupcakes on Glorious Treats.  The talented lady who writes that blog included a tutorial. I liked what I saw so much that I bought the tip last week when I was at JoAnn's.  I didn't even bother to make the frosting (teenagers will eat anything that features sugar...) - I just opened up a can of cream cheese frosting and added a few drops of red and yellow food coloring.  If I was really trying to be fancy, I would used slightly thicker frosting so that the 'petals' stand up more.

And there you go...

"P" Bags

This is what a foley bag looks like...more or less. 
It's not really very attractive, and when it has urine in it, it's even less so.
Thus the need for "P" Bags.
