well then
Alright, so I don't even know where to start. I wait too long to update and then I end up with too many things to talk about...
First of all Saturday was my friend's art show. I did the steak cakes and I did chocolate bacon cupcakes for this meat themed show.
I was also convinced to paint something. Which I'm not thrilled about, but here it is:
Be kind, I'm no painter!!! I've never tried to really paint a serious piece of art ever.
It's a steak growing in a corn husk... a statement about the grainfed cattle industry in America where corn is king.
I did not get to attend the art show because Brian wrecked his bike and smashed up his knee. I stayed home to take care of him. I ended up taking home two of the cupcakes so we could try them. I set them on the counter and we went to bed. When we woke up there was a massacre in the kitchen. I have so many questions. I wish I had a video of the events because I can't possibly understand what happened. The cat knocked everything off the counter. The cupcakes, the crockpot (which had soup in it and it broke), the pop corn popper, a plate... there was frosting and soup everywhere. He must have wanted the bacon. He ate almost an entire cupcake and then scattered the other one everywhere. I don't even... I... wow... I should have taken a photo. It was truly something. I would have never in a million years thought he was capable of something like that insanity.
Sunday was my niece's birthday party.
I made the cake:
So much sass:
Then we came home and ordered Chinese and lounged around for a while.
I rode 12 miles on my bike and then later Brian and I did another 11.
It was a good weekend.
Currently, I'm obsessing over purchasing a Cricut Cake.
I am making a lot for a wedding cake/cupcakes I'm doing next week and I just need to splurge. Something to keep me inspired and working hard. I think once I get it, my wedding cake possibilities will shoot through the roof. I swoon over the damask design cartridge. I need this in my life.
