Sunday Sweets: New Year's Delusions
December 31, 2017 As we recover from our holiday revelry and look forward to 2018, it's time for that most dreaded of traditions: making our new year's resolutions.
Of course we all know what the first one will be, so let's get that out of the way first:
;)
(Submitted by Rachel K-L and found here.)
We will eat nothing but healthy fruits and vegetables for, like, at least a month.
But of course eating better isn't enough! We also have to run!

And apparently not just during commercial breaks. Bah.
Maybe Yoga would be easier:

This reminds me of one of my favorite cat pictures. No, no, I won't spoil it; just go see.
Oh, and this year we will get organized. We will sort and purge and scrub until our homes and garages are begging for mercy:

And we are going to save SO MUCH money:

So we can finally take that trip!

And then we're going to start that garden out back:

And we're going to learn to knit. Or crochet.
Right after we learn the difference between knitting and crocheting.

And you know that button on the camera? The one on the side? Well, this year, we're going to learn what that does.

And we're going to read more:

And finally finish that novel:

And watch less TV!

No, you're right; that's just crazy talk.
Besides, we have to save SOMETHING for next year, right?

OK, that knitting cake was clearly intended for me — a word nerd musician who knits — but got waylaid somewhere. If someone sees it in the wild, please send it my way. I'm sure it's feeling very lost.
OMG the gardening and yoga cakes are so adorable :D
Another New Year's resolution - keeping eating cake and enjoying Cake Wrecks.
FYI - Knitting uses 2 needles (both start with the "n" sound), Crocheting uses one hook (hook ends with the same sound that Crochet starts with).
Is it me, or are these especially exceptionally fabulous?! WOW!! I really need that garden one, in particular.
The main difference between knitting and crochet is that I can crochet but my hands and fingers just won't obey me when I try to knit.
happy new year, jen & john! thanks for your hard work in posting this blog. look forward to the return of the new stuff later this year. i hope you know how much enjoyment all of us get from cakewrecks.
That shoe is perfect for a new balanced diet. :) I went shoe shopping yesterday and thought it looked strangely familiar.
One problem with the yoga cupcakes: The one on the right is wearing either flesh-tone pants or none.
Those are terrific - love the garden one!
ERMAGERD, I want that fruit-and-vegetable cake sooooooooooo bad! Five servings a day, right? "Taste the REAL rainbow." :D
Why does poor Patti have a cleaning cake for her 65th??
I love the little garden!
Happy New Year, wreckies!
These are wonderful and I especially like the garden cake! Happy New Year!
BOOOKS!!!! I wants it.
I often wonder when seeing these how in the heck do they slice and serve them?
Why would anyone give a woman celebrating her 65th birthday a cake shaped like a bucket of cleaning products?
Maybe Patti is a celebrating her retirement from a cleaning job AND her 65th birthday? I would have given her a cake illustrating what she's going to do afterwards, but since I don't know the back-story, I won't judge. The cake is beautifully decorated, after all. Maybe she, like a few of my friends, actually enjoys cleaning? Hard to believe, but it is true. Some people LOVE to clean.
