Guess who had a full day of work and was still behind on writing cards and wrapping presents and still had not made Christmas Eve dessert by Friday afternoon on December 23? MEEEEE!!! That break I had the week before was more like a short gasp of air; there was so much to do @Continue reading “Christmas ornament cake balls”

Christmas cheer-cakes
Things @ the office are JUST starting to slow down as we’re approaching that holiday lull where nothing gets done b/c frankly… everyone I need to harass work w/is out on vacation. Normally, I like being super active and multi-tasking, but it was getting a bit out of control. The breathing time is quite welcomeContinue reading “Christmas cheer-cakes”
“Look to me in my eyeball”
On off weekends, Vin and I catch up on all the shows we missed during the week and one day, we got reeled into watching “Along Came Polly” with Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston. It’s not a must-see, but there’s a memorable scene where the man-of-a-million-voices Hank Azaria shows up as this jacked up scubaContinue reading ““Look to me in my eyeball””
Seashells by the seashore…
After this weekend’s baking project, I wish I were on a nice beach instead of creating mini edible vacation scenes. A friend of a friend is getting married and the theme of her bridal shower: her honeymoon in the Caribbean. As soon as I heard that, I had the perfect idea in mind. I suggestedContinue reading “Seashells by the seashore…”
Baking dump
Things have been quite hectic these past few weeks so I’m just posting a quick blurb. I’ve actually been doing a lot of baking, but a massive workload has been dumped upon my desk so I haven’t been able to take pics or write anything witty or creative about the goods. Here’s a rundown of the past 3Continue reading “Baking dump”
Abstract art: Hello Kitty
It’s been a year since I started this so-called biz. How do remember the date? It’s been one year since I made custom Pinkalicious cupcakes for a coworker’s daughter’s birthday. This year, Hello Kitty cupcakes were requested. Due to time and budget constraints, I had to think about how to make some basic cupcakes thatContinue reading “Abstract art: Hello Kitty”
When pigs fly…
Labor Day weekend signifies the last weekend of summer, and most normal people spend it chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool being all lazy, but we were the anti-thesis of beach bum, BBQ-ing, beer guzzling couch potatoes. We had just signed the papers to sell our house on Thursday, and we had people coming toContinue reading “When pigs fly…”
Somewhere over the rainbow…
(I had technical issues with my hard drive so this post is a week late. As they say on Spartacus, “Apologies!”) Vin’s brother hit a milestone birthday and I knew I HAD to make something better than last year’s cake. At the same time, I was crrrraaaazyyy busy with work and other events so I needed toContinue reading “Somewhere over the rainbow…”
Babar & Tiny Tim go to this party…
Vin’s bro got married last year and he and his wife are expecting a little baby boy in a month. They’ve decked out the baby’s bedroom in this nice yellow and got these cute elephant-related bedding and decor for little Timmy’s arrival. Since their theme was quite obvious, I wanted to create cupcakes for myContinue reading “Babar & Tiny Tim go to this party…”
Suuuuunny day… Sweepin’ the… clouds awayyyy…
Close up of the Sesame Street-themed cupcakes This is one insanely hectic month for me. Looking @ my baking calendar, I think I’ll just schedule sleep for when I’m dead. Last weekend I was on vacation with some girlfriends (we were being patriotic and celebrating July 4th in PR) and I came back to busynessContinue reading “Suuuuunny day… Sweepin’ the… clouds awayyyy…”
