OMG!!! That was TOO funny!!! Thanks SO much!!!
I LOVE Christopher Walken. Him a Russel Crowe. And a few others... I tell you, if I weren't married... I'd still be in my kitchen baking and drooling!!! HAHAHAHAA!!

And PS - I'm with Chutzpah. I hate people. I bought my DH a cotton t-shirt for our 2nd anniversary that says "Jesus loves you... Everyone else thinks you're an idiot", and I quite frequently wear it out in public. He doesn't dare! And guess what shirt I happened to be wearing when the Mormons showed up at my door??? Almost as good as "Orgazmo"! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E0_oiTFiJA&feature=related (if there are kids present you might want to make them leave the room. the language is a bit, umm... well, just have them leave the room!)

Edit to add: Oh yes, and those are my two darlings. 8 years apart. Both are wonderful, and I wouldn't have them any other way!

Great threat! I change mine every once in a while but right now I have my 2yr old daughter Naara. I've enjoy seeing all the avatars and their explanations!

I changed mine from the picture of my grandkids because the picture was just too small to show those 5 beautiful faces clearly.

. . . in step 4 on shrink pictures what did you choose . . . if it was higher than "good" go back and try it again using good . . . if that doesn't work, PM me and I'll try to help you through it another way . . . icon_smile.gif

I just finally figured out how to get mine on, it is not the full picture because it is missing my name "EMI inspirations" after my late mother in law who inspired me to begin decorating. But it does have the tulip which was her favorite flower.

btw, my handle goes way back. Its not Lorie's Mom. Its loriemoms. Back in the 80's (yes, the 80s!) I use to run a bulletin board system. It was all kids on computers back then, you know, the little 13 year olds, hacking into things. They all called me Mom. So the name kind of became loriemom. I think we just threw on the S like Moms Mabely. (ok, showing my age)

But I have used it ever since. 25 years!

. . . I think the only thing you left out is what the significance of your signature is . . . "gotta have more cowbell!"" . . . icon_confused.gif . . . I'd love to know the story behind that one . . . icon_lol.gif

I'm so glad to see this thread!! I love to hear about everyone's families. My avatar is my beautiful nephew Keagen. He's 2 now so this pic is old but I just can't give up that grin!!! My sister noticed last week that she's cropped out of the pic. I told her she's just not as cute as he is! icon_lol.gif

Mine is one of my sweet boxers, Cyrus, when he was a little puppy. He just turned 1 year old so he's still a puppy, but he's huge now! I have another boxer too, a 9-year-old. "My boys" make my life so much sweeter. icon_smile.gif

I just updated my avatar this week, to....drumroll please....
My new biz logo!!!!
I'm going to call my business Toppers Cake Company. The moment I chose the name, the idea for the logo came to me clear as day. I have an artist friend, who was gracious enough to create it for me.
I'm SO happy with it! As soon as the weather cools, I'm also going to create a "dummy cake" version of the logo, and put it in a small display case for my desk, until I can get myself together and open a shop. It will give me plenty of incentive for something to work towards!!
