Wow! It has been over a month since I last posted...my apologies (I know you are all anxiously awaiting an update ;) Here is the work update: I got another raise, woo hoo! They plan on opening two more locations in Northern CA but those are all the details that we know right now. Here are some of the cakes that I've done in the past month:
Firetruck on a cupcake

Monkeys riding on bicycles (sorry, I still haven't figured out how to rotate the pictures!)

This is what 1,000 cupcakes looks like for an Easter event

Someone ordered a wedding cake to celebrate the Royal Wedding

Crickets for a bug themed party

Tropical getaway

Full sheet of carrot cake for a wedding

Rapture End of the World Cake (I have a feeling they spent their life savings on this!)

The latest trend on finding out if you are going to have a boy or a girl is to have the doctor call the bakery and then you fill the inside of your cake or cupcakes with pink or blue so when you cut into it you will be surprised (don't ask me what we would do if she was having twins! p.s. this one was a boy!)


My best friend Melinda came up to visit me during her spring break from teaching. We had a lovely time visiting Chandon which is one of my favorite champagnes to drink. We couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather and a relaxing day.



My friend Kim finally got married! It was a beautiful wedding and Mom and EJ were able to come up for it.

I caught a piece of the bouquet!

Of COURSE I made the wedding cake :)

And the individual sweetie pies that everyone ate instead of cake!


The following weekend was Bay to Breakers which Mom and Debbie came up to do with me:

I was part of the team from the bakery (and yes, that is "Susie" as the cupcake!)

Phew! Now that we're all caught up, here's what's going on in the next couple of weeks: trip to Vegas for EJ's brother's highschool graduation, trip to Washington D.C./Boston, David's 30th Birthday, co-birthday celebration with EJ, and who else knows what will pop up unexpectedly! Thank you everyone for your continued love and support and I hope that I'm making you all proud :)
