Cake!

 Carmen has been experimenting in the kitchen.
She likes to bake.
While her projects are usually ambitious, 

today she chose a more doable recipe.
It still was a two-tiered, homemade chocolate cake with

 peppermint butter cream and homemade fondant, 

but it was something she could execute

(with a little bit of help).
She did a great job.
She's improving and getting more and more comfortable.
Maybe next time she'll move away from treats and learn how to make dinner!
