well hello everyone, remember me?? 
well, for those of you who do not know who i am, i use to be on this site night and day. wow, have things changed!! so many new topics were added. well, for those of you who are wondering where i've been. i took a break from cakes and went back to school. i'm trying to get my degree in elementary education, but my passion, when i can find the time is cakes. well, i have accumulated many many pans that i will be selling on ebay, especially character pans. flavurdfun, you can have first picks, before i list them all on ebay. my ebay username is butlerp23. it was cakesbydiane, but i changed it to be more in line with the majority of things that i will be selling in the near future. well, i am really glad to be back. i've taken a break from school for a semester, so i will be here trying to catch up and meet all the new people who also have a love for cake decorating! 
Hey Diane ,
Of course we remeber you!!! 
Welcome back.
As you can see some things have changed and we have so many new members.
I was gone for a month and when i came back it was a little overwelming.
Have you stopped baking completelaty or still taking a break?

WELCOME BACK!!! And good for you and good luck to you. I will look you up on ebay.. Hmm flavurdfun don't be a pan hog.. LOL joking cant wait to see what you have!!!
Hi diane,
Indeed I do remember you and glad to see that you have the same avatar...it always reminded me of a fairy.
Welcome back and glad to see everything is fine with you.
As you can see, CC has grown alot. There are more forums added and plenty of talented decorators old and new.
Once again, welcome back.
well, thanks everyone. no, i haven't given up cake decorating. right now i am doing it full time. i had five cakes that were due today!! i did miss it, and my customers missed me. well, just to let all the old timers know, i offered flavurdfun the first picks because she gave me a pan a while back, which was very nice of her, so i thought i'd return the gesture. i haven't listed any of my pans on ebay yet because there are so many and i don't have any time to do it right now. i have three kids, two dogs, and a husband who's in iraq right now. 
i will be listing them on ebay after the holidays, when i'm not so busy. i'll let you all know when i do.

it's good to be home!!! 
Hey Diane!! Good to see you back!! I thought maybe your hubby got stationed somewhere else & you guys were in the process of moving. It will be good to hear from you & see your cakes again!! A lot of people have quit CC & so many new people have joined. I'm not on CC as much anymore either. Too busy! I haven't met very many of the newbies yet. You have a lot of catching up to do!!
Great to see you again!!
