Life Takes Over...

Where have I been?  Life.  Cakes have not been on hold, just writing about them.  I am about 8 cakes behind.   Being a mom, a wife, a room mom, a career women have all taken priority over documenting my cakes.  What I have realized in the past 7 months is how much I enjoy doing cakes-- and how comfortable I am in my own skin right now. I have taken some time to flush out what I want to do and focus on what is most important-- my family.  I have changed jobs so that I am closer to home.  My new position is still in corporate america but has less stress and I am done at 5-- my work does not come home with me.  I have become more involved in my daughters school.  My husband and I have started date night- awesome. Why did we wait almost 9 years to do this.  To all my married friends out their-- schedule a date night.  So worth it.  And I know my cakes are something I want to do-- just on my time.




I realized I am much more like my family than thought.  I like a starting point-- buzz light year or green and orange.  Then I want to run with it.  I don't like to be pigeon holed into an idea.  This is truly an artistic expression for me.  I like bringing joy to people through cake--whether a room full of people are enjoying a GFCF cake or someone wasn't even expecting a birthday cake and it was a personal expression.  I want my cakes to be a personal experience for people.  I am back and enjoying every minute of it.
