Hello cake friends! Busy busy here as I am sure you all are as well. Going to move into our new apartment this weekend. I had a informal interview with an old friend who is now co-owner of two restaurants. He's interested in my baking his desserts for the restaurants. I would love to do it but gotta check out money/child care/benefits etc. I have applied for some jobs that would probably pay more and have more benefits so we'll see. Love you all!
 
 
 
Good luck with the jobs and the move in Carla!
06/12/13 @ 12:59 pm by janell
Money & future first!! Pay now play later. Maybe you can figure out how to do it all??!
06/12/13 @ 1:45 pm by TraciiVCL
Morning Carla, sounds like everything is looking up for you in NB. I am so happy for you. Since there is $$ in weddings, ask your friend if you bake for his two restaruants, would he let you use the kitchen for weddings and other cakes.
06/13/13 @ 8:51 am by kathredtiaraprincess
Good luck Carla; hope it works out for you!
Thursday @ 1:33 pm by Justin Lynch
Good luck with it all Carla!

Hi all! So MIA lately. My apologies. Scattered to thin. At least I got a cake in last week, too bad they aren't in the cup :( GO BOSTON!! HA HA Working on my BF's wedding cake & the gentleman who owns the general store here in the Mills. Hopefully the weather will hold out, so far looks sunny :). Foot almost healed. I'm still afraid to exercise. I just don't want to do any damage!!! It still swells like a bugger & I'll have one hell of a scar! Been watching the Baking Show and it's weird but Foxworthy is makin
 
 
 
Very nice Tracci, sorry they didn't make it. Your right to keep off the foot until it is completely healed.
06/13/13 @ 8:48 am by kathredtiaraprincess
Looks good Tracii!

Why is is that when you are time crunched you leave something out of a recipe & the cake flops :( Starting over...
 
 
 
Set-backs suck! Hopefully you got it under control there, I'm sure you have!

Good Morning Cake Junkies, another wonderful day on the agenda. This is Fathers day weekend, we have a parade here in town. We close down at 11 to watch the parade, plus the major roads are all shut down for a few hours. We are planning a cook out and some R&R time. I just read the nicest thing "Every time a baby is born, so are a mom and dad." March of dimes. Enjoy your day and smile it makes you feel good.
 
 
 
Have a great day Katherine!

Morning all! A dreary Father's Day here today, damp and cold, but hey ho! I am not sure what to do with my day just yet; having my third cup of tea, then I'll decide after that! Most probably head to the gym to get it out the way. Happy Sunday!
 
 
 
Have a good day Justin!

Busy day yesterday that ended with husband being stung by a wasp!! He has an allergy to bees so thankfully the reaction he's having is the norm for a wasp sting! Raining today so lots of indoor housework to get done. Have a great day all!
 
 
 
Yikes, hope he's feeling better!
06/09/13 @ 8:40 pm by cakeswithcharacter
Glad to hear that he's ok
06/10/13 @ 3:59 am by Justin Lynch
Good thing is we haven't had to go to the ER anyway. He may end up at the dr today though. His hand is still swollen, sore, red hot and he's had some blisters come up.

Happy Tuesday to you Justin, having that assignment in must have given you much needed relief.
06/04/13 @ 11:16 am by kathredtiaraprincess

Okay..I admit it...I have absolutely no talent in the world. I refuse to not finish this piece but it is eating my lunch. I'll get pretty far along and think.."Oh yeah...this is looking good...then step away for a bit and come back and go..."Oh crap....this looks horrible"... and tear it up and start again.
 
 
 
I have never been one to admit defeat but I think I'm close to doing just that. Hope you all are having a better week than me.
06/05/13 @ 7:55 am by Sally Hackney
Morning Sally, I say just keep working and it will come. I started out ahead of schedule, but with the remodels I am a tad behind. I have decided I will keep trodding and if I can I can, if I can't well then up goes the towel. You will be fine.
06/05/13 @ 9:54 am by kathredtiaraprincess
Sorry to hear it Sally - how frustrating. Hope you are able to tame that cake! Have a good day!
06/05/13 @ 10:19 am by cakesbycarla
be patient with you self! you have a gift and talent you will get it. at least you are working out all the kinks! :) hang tough girl you can do it!!!
06/06/13 @ 3:23 am by Dianne Holgate
Sally, that's untrue. Just take some time out from your piece, walk away and then go back to it. Sometimes you just need a clear head. You CAN do it!!!
06/06/13 @ 10:03 am by Justin Lynch
Stop it!!!! You are very talented!! We all have those down days. Just walk away for a bit and come back with a clearer head. Things usually work out for the best!!

Good Morning Cake Junkies, I am going to give you some information that will give you a lot of thought when posting pictures of your children. Please watch this as your pictures can be tracked and so on. It is scary. http://www.youtube.com/embed/N2vARzvWxwY?rel=0
 
 
 
I think there are lots of people unaware of what can be seen and traced by others when they post pics on social networking sites. It's a scary world!
06/06/13 @ 10:02 am by Justin Lynch
Yes - I make sure I have all my privacy settings on so nothing is "public". Scary world out there!
06/06/13 @ 11:36 am by cakesbycarla
Same here Carla, I even have some family that can not see my posts/pics.
06/06/13 @ 5:07 pm by janell

Well, I might've found our new place yesterday. Doing some calls today to check out the school nearby and the utility costs. Might have a winner - which is refreshing - this one place I saw yesterday I don't think I would live in even if it were free. Phew - it was awful. Have a great day folks!
 
 
 
Glad to hear, hope it works out for you! :)
06/06/13 @ 5:02 pm by janell
Fingers crossed it works our for you Carla!

Morning all! Stunning weather here today, and it's in for the weekend too! PoA for the weekend; I have a small cake to complete, and then a BBQ tomorrow evening. Sunday will then be a chill day, maybe potter in the garden, we'll see! Happy Friday!
 
 
 
Sounds delightful Justin!! I BBQ almost every night in the summer time ...and I grill 3-4 nights a week even in the dead of winter. I just love the way meat taste that has been grilled. I also don't use a propane grill. Mine is pure charcoal all the way. It's what makes it have that awesome smoke taste. Have fun!!!
06/07/13 @ 7:54 am by Sally Hackney
Morning Justin, it sounds like a great weekend.
06/07/13 @ 8:31 am by kathredtiaraprincess
Sounds fun, enjoy!

Well...I've just got to tell someone. I was sworn to secrecy last night but you all don't know anyone else to tell. My son and his wife have been together for ten years and have not been able to concieve. They called me last night and she if pregnant!!! My son is over the moon. Now I Have to get back to Texas in time for that birth. I've never been much of a "kid" person but I'm sure this one will turn me into a real "grandma".
 
 
 
("is" pregnant).
06/07/13 @ 7:57 am by Sally Hackney
Congratulations Sally! I am right there with you regarding the little ones, but grandbabies does sound nice. You will get back to Texas if we have to buy you a pair of ruby slipers. :>
06/07/13 @ 8:29 am by kathredtiaraprincess
That's wonderful news Sally!!!! Congratulations!!!
06/07/13 @ 11:24 am by janell
Sally this is fantastic news! Congratulations, you're going to be a grandma! Now, you just need that house sold so you can get back home to Texas!
06/08/13 @ 11:32 am by Justin Lynch
Congratulations!!!! Great news!

Morning Cake Junkies, it is going to be a crazy weekend for me. Mike and Nicholas leave for AZ this evening for 4 days of fun and looking at the area. Max and I have a weekend of cafe and hanging out. I plan on getting some of the finishing touches done from the remodels.
 
 
 
Hmmm...do I detect a future move to Az???? That would be a shock to your system after WI weather! But probably a good shock!! Enjoy your time...Max will love it!!!
06/07/13 @ 10:28 am by Sally Hackney
I think when the boys come back they will tell me our 4seasons is home to them.
06/07/13 @ 3:21 pm by kathredtiaraprincess
Hi Kath! Hope your weekend is a good one; I am just a out to head to a BBQ, but I am doing the cooking even though I'm a guest! Lol.

have decided that Mother Nature is not so divine and is really a bit of an old cow; getting ready for rotten weather yet again! Tornado warnings everywhere in our area. Some place somewhere is going to be in trouble again tonight -- I hope I am wrong!
 
 
 
And the sad part is we are totally at her mercy....we just have to sit and wait and hope. Good thoughts coming your way my friend.
05/31/13 @ 5:08 pm by Sally Hackney

05/31/13 @ 9:29 pm by kathredtiaraprincess

06/01/13 @ 11:37 am by Dianne Holgate
I hope nowhere was affected too badly but this again! Keep safe Kerry!
06/01/13 @ 12:19 pm by Justin Lynch
