And so begins another year...

Well, that's it... the rest of 2010 in a nutshell. It was a whirlwind of a year, let me tell you that! I can't believe it has been nearly a year since I started this caking adventure! Stay with me... you won't believe what's still to come!!!

Until next time...

Taking Time to Remember

I was honored to be asked to make dessert for a fund-raising dinner for the Megan Baldwin scholarship for high school students. Megan was an amazing student, but more importantly, a wonderful, wonderful young lady who is missed greatly. I was honored to have a part in this dinner, as a way to honor the memory of this extraordinary teenager!


Sports and super heroes!






Merry Christmas!

I helped Elisabeth finish off this cake for Ben's birthday. :)

I stink at this whole blog thing..

Okay, so the school year started, and I got busier than ever before... both with school and my cakes. The first weekend of the school year I did 4 cakes. I was extremely stressed out... to the point that I came down with SHINGLES, of all things. That's when I decided to limit myself to two cakes per week. Well, that lasted all of 2 weeks, lol. I haven't done more than 4 in a week, with the exception of Thanksgiving, when I made 13 turkeys. Obviously, I have not posted pictures in a long, long time. So I will take a minute to bring you up-to-date with what 's been going on in my cake universe. :)

Until next time!
