Hi all just wanted to pop in say Ola! Auntie went to a better place last week, so I now have some free time. Tying up loose ends and getting the casa squared away a bit. Will chat up a bit later hope everyone is doing fantastico!

Ok going back under the hood, will catch yas later have a great weekend sugarsweeties!

Hello Everyone! Hope you're all doing well. Not much new around here. Potty training my little one and doing a little creative writing here and there. Don't have any cakes scheduled until March and I have to say I'm pretty happy about that. Got a little burned out last month juggling the kids and cakes. Have a great day everyone!

Morning everyone! Feel like I have been away forever!!!! Finally home and trying to get back to the swing of things. Will be busy today. I have family coming from Canada for a week. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Heard from Carla...she's ok...just taking a little hiatus. So glad to hear it.

The Disney class was absolutely amazing! Lots and lots of laughter and giggles, tons of creativity, and an enormous amount of amazing talent! With everyone doing their own design, some of them plan to take their pieces to the Austin show at the end of the month and I cannot wait to see their final pieces!! btw...Dawn and Sandy were the bomb!

Where did the day go? I unpluged this morning and have been running / baking all day. My peaches for the upside down cake moved when I poured the batter, don't know how since I spooned most of it in. Oh well Mike will have to eat that part. Tomorrow I still have some desserts for an order to bake an prepare. Jayne, I am adding butterclay to the top of one bite size cake, I made tiny rose buds for the top of butterclay..

I have been around visitng Kerry, but it's been slow here. I have been trying to get things organized and working on stuff that I had put to the side but can't wait anymore. All is good.. Just a bit crazy!

Hey everyone! Just got this cute thank you email from one of my clients. Isn't it just so sweet?

More of the students, the ladies where great.:)

Good morning all! It's Friday!!!! The weekend is almost upon us. This weekend I have to do some prep work for an engagement cake; I'm going to do a two tiered cake, with different seized hearts cascading down the front in lavender and white. Happy Friday folks.

Morning everyone! For those of you who asked my husband is healing slowly but surely. Still pretty weak and sleeping most of the time. I feel like I'm taking care of 4 kids now. Still doing all the extra running around that he usually helps me with. I do not know how single parents do it!! It is good to have him home though and each week he does get better and better! What a way to start 2012!!! Have a great day everyone!!

Hi cakins! Thanks everyone for the nice comments, you are all my sweetest thoughts! I am in the soup right now, having trouble getting a better tasting icing. I have been using Mike McCarey's which has great texture and mouth feel, however, even reducing the some of the butter still leaves a very butter taste. Does anyone have either a solution to combat too much butter taste/and or a great recipe? I have used Sharon Z's and the SMBC on CC . Thanks and I hope everyone is having a great day today! ("

Hi my cakins! Sorry I have been MIA, my computer is soooo jacked up about 98% of the Time, I just don't have the patience to wait for it to let me reply! In any case you all are always in my thoughts in a very loving way! I am not caking much as Auntie E is not doing so well and my time for her care is far more important right now. However, I did jsut come across an excellent tutorial for making armatures: http://michaelsanimationblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/armature-construction-task.html

Hi Everyone I just wanted to stop in quickly and wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Thank you all for being such a sweet and supportive group, you are very much appreciated by me. ("

Just wanted to check in to say hi ya, as usual everyone is busy, have a great night and happy baking!

Had to do the walk of shame today as we exited story time. Ugh. Can I sublet my child until she turns 3? The 2's are just so difficult sometimes! Had a nice public meltdown. Always my favorite! The best is when they go all limp so you can't pick them up and when you do get a hold of them, they arch backwards so you can hardly keep a hold of them. I am soooooo ready for break. Hubby's getting some quality time with his daughter! LOL!

It's Rebecca!!!!! Hi everyone! Major life changes in the past few weeks!

Havent been able to login for a few days! Finally!!! I hope it sticks!
