Finished Cake and Questions.....

well, here is the finished product.

strawberry vanilla swirl cake, with decorated rolled fondant, and air brushed gum paste flowers/mask. i put about 6 hours into this. i do not believe i even got a thank you. even after changing the theme last minute, to make me change my plans, and having to make more cake than originally asked for. i think it came out nice, but i am disappointed for putting the extra effort into this.

i have to rethink some things, namely i will most likely do some research on a set price to charge per serving. a lot of things, i guess, since i don't make anything from doing this for anyone. i mean, i want to help out and not be crazy expensive, usually as long as people thank me, appreciate my efforts and enjoy what they get i am happy. if people can't even utter a thanks, slam doors in faces and have nothing to say, it's not even worth the time and effort.

sigh. that's why i have all of that tea. and my son. well, all of the birds. i just feel like doing nothing but sitting around and reading or watching anime or something dumb. i need to not eat all kinds of bad things. i have totally been searching pinterest for granola bars, stuff with oatmeal, peanut butter, and stuff like that. i did not know that breakfast cookies existed until a couple days ago, and i want to try them.

speaking of anime and things, i tried that mug brownie again a few days ago. it came out better this time, as i microwaved it less. i still could have gone a little less, since the bottom was slightly crispy.

still delicious.

i wonder if they make healthy versions of things like this? or maybe i can make a ton of those breakfast cookies, and just eat them all day. that sounds good. at least it might be a little better for me.

then, i can put myself into a tea coma and be happy. maybe make some hair bows. that sounds good too.

on the list of things to do this week!

other things? i have no idea, other than work, and probably go for another walk on thursday. yay for trying to be good! (keyword there is trying, i will be making up for today all week. it was worth it though. i love food.)

i know, i know. i am posting this bird again. but...but.....DAT FACE!!!! ohhh i just wanna smoosh it all the time, but he won't let me. i have to trick him to pick him up or else he bites, but once i pick him up he is fine. i cannot resist his smooshable face. aahh!!

is it sad that the picture of the brownie and this face make me happier than putting that cake together right now? i don't think this has ever happened to me before. HAPPY THOUGHTS. gonna make some treats! gonna make some tea!! gonna read some books! gonna watch tv! cuz i got alll dayyy offff tomorrow!! when i will figure out what to do when i get there. i am sure i am not making any sense, but whatever. i will probably have more treats to report since i like to make things in my random free time. ooh, i have those basil tea truffles one of my waitresses found in the newspaper....project?! probably.

well, i am going to leave it at that for now. thanks for reading! leave me comments if you are feeling nice enough.
