how did my mom turn our backyard into a dessert wonderland?
My mom doesn’t just bake cakes—she plants them. I’m serious. Last spring, she started mixing her love for baking with her passion for gardening. She’d shape flower beds like slices of cake, using marigolds for frosting and pansies for sprinkles. It looked wild, but it totally worked.
We’d spend afternoons picking out plants with the brightest colors. She always said, “Go bold or go home.” Watering was our daily ritual, and we’d talk about which flowers would look good together, just like picking cake flavors. The best part? Watching butterflies and bees join our little party.
If you want your garden to pop, treat it like a cake. Layer colors, add some fun shapes, and don’t be afraid to get creative. Turns out, a little imagination makes everything sweeter.
