Yeah, my daughter suffers, too. As does my cakes. icon_smile.gif Actually, I play with my daughter tons, and am trying to teach her to entertain herself.

I am getting ready to go over my DD house to see my GS (20 months). He had sugery on his eye yesterday. His tear duck were blocked. She didn't have it done when he was younger because they would have done it while he was awake. Now that he's older they gave him gas, so he didn't feel a thing.

Last week when they were over for dinner we were all fixing out plates and DD was fixing his. It was so funny he got his Backyardigans bowl off his high chair and held it up in the air. Like that movie that I can't think of the name. Oh, oh, I remember now Oliver Twist. I guess he wanted to make sure he ate.

I really like Wilton's pre-made gumpaste. I always use my coupon so it's worth it.

I won't go into the whole story but on JJ there was a woman sueing her daughter and one of the things on her list was that her daughter took toilet paper from her house. These people are crazy that's why I love the show.

I'm still working on flowers.

Did you guys notice how much lower CC's prices are for their color and dust compared to other web-sites. I would buy from them anyway to support the site but it really nice we have such a good price. Really, when I think about it all their prices are better.

I know I will be thinking of this site the rest of the evening. I have to sneak up to the computer on weekends. DH is such a baby, he thinks I should spend time with him. I wonder if there is a Hockey Game on this weekend. If there is I have a good 3 hrs. Detroit Redwings are in the playoffs.

Janette,
I'm free every day there is football or football shows on TV.

Hubby is a HUGE football addict. Just as I am addicted to CC.

He could care less about me during football season. I like it that way.

It gives me 16 weeks of "Me" time.

I'm glad to hear your GS is doing well.

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly...but I don't know why she swallowed the fly, perhaps she'll die... icon_biggrin.gif


I'm not going anywhere. I may check less now that my husband is home and eventually I will head to Home Depot for a bit, but I'll be here for a long time. I want to get this cake done TODAY! So, come say hi to me people. You see, its a great thing that I don't work, but other people do, so they leave me all alone... icon_cry.gif Well, except those that write at home and school. icon_wink.gif

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all weekend...(except for tomorrow evening because they're letting me out of the house icon_surprised.gif for my BIL's party. My MIL is picking up my daughter thumbs_up.gif to take her during the party because FIL#2 will be out of town. thumbsdown.gif FIL #1 isn't invited. He is a great man, I love him to death and felt immediately accepted by him when Xaq introduced me to his dad. icon_cool.gif

I like the gumpaste too! Especially since it comes in that handy ziplock bag! I can just pinch off a bit and get to business!

I've never worked with gumpaste. I'd like to, but I think I will take the classes at the cake shop. There's also a discount cooking store/school down here (Great News) and I'm waiting for their class to have an opening. They're booked until the end of June right now.

I've been lurking since this thread started and I have to say I've been very entertained. I just found this site recently and it has inspired me. I've only done 1 cupcake cake and 1 fondant cake. I'm totally addicted!! My husband thinks I'm crazy, but I can't help it! Keep it up...I love reading this. I will say that Wilton fondant does suck. I bought it and then read how bad it was here. So I went and bought Satin Ice (loved it) I just opened the wilton to see if it smelled as bad...it does thumbsdown.gif I'm sure I'll be back later to join in the fun icon_biggrin.gif

Okay, I'm all caught up on the reading...

I like it when people comment on my pics too....to bad no one comments on them! I guess someone went through the uncommented section and just said "great job" on all my pics.....I MUST SUCK at cake decorating!!

I've never tried working with gumpaste either (good thing I don't teach that class!!), I keep thinking that I want to TAKE the class, but I don't want to take it from the person who I took all of the other courses from. I might go to another Michaels and take it there!! Is that bad or what??

I think I'll take a drive down to So Cal the weekend around by b-day.....all this talk about Disney and Knotts, I think I'll pick Knotts for my b-day dinner!! Hubby is gonna kill me!

Okay, now that I caught up, I have to take DS#1 to Barnes and Noble to spend a lot of my money....good thing today was payday! I'll be back soon!

Loops have a great weekend! You'll be gone before I get back.

I'm still here.

Cathy, that reminds me. I have a Borders Book gift card. I think I'll go down there today as well.

Have an awesome weekend. I will check back this evening and be checking throughout the weekend.

Gumpaste is so much fun. You don't need a class for it. Just buy it and do stuff with it.

Wjk, Welcome to our happy place.

Hello, I'm still here! My cake is now carved, and I am waiting for buttercream to un-refridgerate. ? How can you un-re- something? But, I'm going to take off to Home Depot as soon as this boys daddy is here.

unfortunately,
I have to sign off now. The shop is about to shut down and we're going to call it a day.

I'll see you on here tonight.

I hope I don't miss too much.

Monica your shipment is on it's way.

Okay so my mom said I am getting a present from CC and I don't know what it is! IT IS DRIVING ME INSANE!! I hope it gets here soon! icon_lol.gif Is there a smiley for insanity??

Cathy I am going to try and undo some of your injustices! I don't know how it is that I haven't commented on your cakes yet! But I will right NOW!! Every so often I like to sit and just go through all of one persons pics. It is fun to see cakes by the same person on a lot of themes!

Thanks Julie and Marthajo -

I think that I'm adaquate, that's why I only teach Wiltons Course 1. I never have the confidence that I'm actually GOOD!! But it's good to hear every once and awhile!! I had one student last month that was a natural! I couldn't believe how good she was!

There are so many great and talented people here on CC. I can't wait to get half as good as everyone here!!!

Hi! Anyone left on here? I asked for free samples...of fondant, I'll take free samples of lipo, too. I really can't wait to try another fondant cake...I haven't done one since class and that was really not planned out. If you saw the pic you would laugh then cry then shake your heads! icon_smile.gif

I can't believe you guys get so much done, clean house and keep up here. Ha. My laundry keeps going off balance and it's driving me crazy! Why does the washer wait until I start back up the stairs to go off balance?

It was me who posted about my daughter, and I didn't mean to bring the room down...I heard crickets chirping after I wrote that and felt bad about saying it. It's just what brought me to cake decorating. I had previously wanted to do the classes but my mom kinda made me go. icon_smile.gif I am happy she did, my husbands wallet isn't but too bad for him. icon_smile.gif I didn't mean to make anyone uncomfortable, though. I just don't like to say that I am mother to one because that leaves my little girl out and then it gets weird explaining.

Do you think Cake_Freak will abandon us now she's a free agent?

How long do you think this thread will get before the lock us out?

I should bake something...but I have no one to eat it so it would be pointless. icon_smile.gif

Bueller, Bueller???? Anyone there? What, did you go to sleep on me or what? icon_smile.gif

ATTENTION, ATTENTION

I just got back from JoAnn's and they had half their Wilton stuff on clearance.

WJK, we are glad to have you join us. We are having a blast.

Martha, CC is really fast with their shipping

loops, I have the same problem with the gumpaste. I like it but my hand gets stuck in the bag.

I'll pop in again later

I was at Joanns over the weekend and bought stuff that was on clearance. When I asked if they were getting rid of the Wilton section they said no and that they were probably just waiting for the new stuff to come in......

Things that make you go hmmmm........
