Wow, it has been a long time since I've posted last. A lot has happened in the past few weeks. I went through an incredibly busy wedding season. They all went pretty smoothly well, except for one, but i was able to fix it in time. lets just say its quite an adventure to deliver a cake from Harrison to Eastgate on I-275 during rush-hour traffic on a Friday. it was quite traumatic but it turned out alright. My Saturday wedding at the French house was a dessert buffet and was wonderful, the bride, an acquaintance from dietetic school looked gorgeous as she got her pictures taken as i set up my table. Then i had a wedding the following Saturday a referral from a previous bride i did a wedding cake for a few years back. I saw her pics on her facebook a few days later and she looked stunning as well, like a Hollywood glamour model. but anyway weddings went well and i got positive feedback from them all. The next big project is a 'cake pop' wedding in September. I was kind of volunteered to do it by my mother and I'm a little uneasy about it because i have no file or set plan but i guess with this type of thing i have to just go with it. sometimes my best work is done when i don't have a plan. so wish me luck and I'll be sure to post pictures.
moving on...
Big News: Becca got a new job, well, not really, I'm still at the same facility but our baker is retiring and they needed a replacement. Because of my training and my love for baking i jumped on the opportunity and got it. For me, this means new opportunities, a set schedule, weekends off, early baker hours, and more time to myself or Ryan or one more thing....
A dog, yes a dog. Mom is finally letting me get a dog but its going to be a slow process. It started out with an adoption for a staffordshire puppy i applied for that unfortunately fell through on their end. i was upset at first but its ok now. I'll find a dog that's right for me. To aid in the process i started to volunteer at a local animal shelter cleaning kennels and feeding the dogs and taking them for walks. its a lot of work but its a lot of fun.
For now i have a couple of days off and so does Ryan so we're spending some time together hanging out and relaxing. I'll be back at work on Thursday. Not much has happened weight wise, its been 2 ish weeks and i haven't gained anything so that's good but i haven't lost anything. I'm hoping that once i get a nice high energy dog it'll keep me active and get me out to walk more. I'll let you all know when i get my new child. till then, have a terrific Tuesday
