I am just sitting here wondering how many of my fellow CC'ers have a cake in the oven right now. More than that, did you do like me and wait till the last minute to do it. I was off yesterday and today and this cake is due to be delivered at 11:00am tommorrow and I am just getting started. Well, I guess I'll return to kicking my own self in the _ _ _.
I always seem to be in some stage of cake making/decorating, and even when I am out and about I am looking for more cake decorating stuff!
Normally that is what I do, but I had 5 cakes for this weekend and I had that feeling that something was going to happen, so I actually got things done ahead of time. Low and behold I was up with a sick child all night. Took her to the doc and she has an infection in both ears.The doc said her right ear drum is blistered and she is surprised it has not burst. I get her home and full of meds and I just got finished with the last cake a little while ago. I', going to take a big drink and call it a day.
I am just like you!!!! LOL.......I have a cake due Monday and I am just now starting to make the 200 pearls that I need. Plus I have to make 4 bows!!! I am trying to start this one a little early, and If I really do, it will be for the FIRST time!!!!
What cake are you making?
OMG, 200 pearls?? Whew! I'm just doing a regular sheet cake for an 84 year old. I haven't even decided on a design yet!
LOL, what makes me even more pitiful is that I played around last night trying to decorate my first sugar cookies with icing other than MMF, and I should have been doing this cake instead. If I can find my adapter for my camera, I'll post some pics of the cookies.
I got my handy dandy pearl molds which I love, right now the work is coloring the fondant.
No cake in the oven here! I just finished some fondant booties and a purple mask for a mardi gras cake BUT I am guilty of doing nothing all day well my baby's fault she didn't sleep long today in fact only long enough for me to clean the kitchen and I haven't iced the make I haven't made the icing either for a baby shower cake for tomorrow!!! Shoot I just realized I haven't covered my board either!
What am I doing on the computer!!!!!!!!1 ![]()
Oh well It's only 8:20pm
I have cake for 350 tomorrow. I have cake and cheesecake in the oven, and don't think I'll be done til about 1 AM.
I just took my cake out about an hour ago
Just a cake for my hubby and kids...pineapple upside down cake with extra brown sugar, oh it was good!!
Yes, sadly, I am like you. Only, instead of a cake (which I wish I was doing) I am procrastinating writing a 7 to 8 page paper due on Monday for my Govt & Business class AND studying for a major exam in Managerial Economics on Monday, which I am positive I will fail.
I wish, instead of being concerned about my GPA, I was feeling the rush of designing a cake in the nick of time.
Ugh! I should have gone to culinary school instead!! lol
Baked mine this morning before work. I just finished the second one. A race track for Robert using two 10 inch rounds and a 6 inch round for his Nana. All I have to do in the morning is set up the flags and finish line. This is a rarity for me. I am usually finishing an hour before pick up.
No cake in the oven for me tonight, but I will be working on a 3-tier golf themed cake tomorrow night and on Sunday. They want it delivered by 8:30 Monday morning and I have fondant golf accents to make. I just need a little break before jumping back into it again.
I should have been doing the golf accents today, but started playing around with a mini tiered girly cake instead. ![]()
Kate..., don't even get me started on school. I have a huge Ananatomy and Physiology Test on Monday that I should be studying for too. My GPA used to be 4.0, but not anymore. It's a 3.6 and maybe it will be even lower after this semester if I don't tighten up, lol.
Well, believe it or not, I just finished my cake for tomorrow. It is 10:00 pm here. This is rare for me. Normally the cake has just come out of the oven and is cooling at this point.
The last wedding cake I had, I started the only 2 days ahead of time. I was up until 2:00 am that night and I had to go to work the next morning. I want to be a planner, but I just doesn't work out that way! ![]()
haha! Interestingly enough, that is my GPA as well. I can attribute my lowered GPA to staying up late decorating a cake (or lollygagging on CC) instead of studying. Of this, I am sure!! haha
Good luck on your exam! ![]()
I have a couple in the oven now but will need to bake the same again tomorrow, I'm going to make one of Debbie Brown's tree stump cakes. You know you have a problem when your 8 year old daughter comes out to the kitchen, asks what you're making and you reply 'cake', and her response is 'oh, I thought you were making something for us'!! It just happened so I'm still laughing!!
