OMG was the best way to explain this , my mouth drop as i was reaing the thread lol. THE Frosting of that lady. best of luck to all to not have to deal with someone like that lol. my stomach hurt for laughing so hard, and once again IM SORRY . to hear this lol
This thread is hilarious!
On another note...that last frying pan smiley brings back memories. When I was about 15, my brother who was about 7, did that when I was lying on the floor doing my homework. He wanted to know "if I was seeing the little birdies" after he hit me. Sheesh!
um... nope I don't think its dynamite... think more... cottony.
Seriously?? Is that what it's supposed to be?? lol, I swear, only a man would post that........

oh yes.. it is THAT!! LOL look closely.. there's .. um.. red on it
Ewww. I thought it was suppossed to be lightening/fire/venom spraying from a grumpy woman's mouth.
Yuck!
um... nope I don't think its dynamite... think more... cottony.
That's what I thought... *shudders*
OMG! I honestly didn't look that closely at that! I just saw PMS and thought "fitting". My bad! No man here but I'm sure one created it.

I am really sorry. I really did think it was dinomite. I swear. Man I am a dummie
Dinomite give me a break. I am laughing at myself.
Edited to add: dinomite has red on it & it looks like it sparking at the fuse thingie. Its dinomite yall....
Ooooh, to tick the crazay lady off, I would make my friends cake for free and let crazay lady chew on that one!!!

Sorry, I saw your avatar and for some reason, thought you were a guy, lol! Between HOT, HOT, HOT Lennie Kravitz and the "Iron"baker, I immediately thought of man.....oops.

Three Weeks?!? That's such a looooong time to wait for the best laugh I know I'll have this year. But at least I can get lots of popcorn ready.
Kudos to you, CakeDiva. I hate dealing with conflict like this. It totally eats me up inside. I'm glad you're dealing with it with a sense of humor. You go!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEW That is disgusting, I sooo wasnt even tripping off of that avatar, I thought it was a mouse....eeeeeeeeeeeeeeew GROSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Why dont you make a cake and make that avatar out of gumpaste for her....ha ha ha ha ha ha...
That is sooooooooooooooo gross.....eeeeeeeeeeew..sorry...I am soo stupid and niave i thought she was pmsing so bad she grabbed a mouse and put it in her mouth...ok I NEED to get out more...sheesh.
I need to find out where I can get one of those ticker thingies..i would like to have a counter so I can see how many more days I have to wait before the drama unveils!!!!
Ooooh, to tick the crazay lady off, I would make my friends cake for free and let crazay lady chew on that one!!!
That's totally what I was going to suggest! I'd be doing that too. Make sure the friend casually mentions to her SIL that she got a free cake as a thank you for all the other orders she's placed in the past.
I wish I could be a fly on the wall at that party!
I just gotta say, you are a better person than i am. I would have politely told her if there were other decorators that would take her business and let her control their business she might wanna call one of them. It's not me making the cake and ya know decorating it and taking all that time to make it look good for her for NO reason... there's a reason i'm the decorator and she isnt.
Look at it like this... a semi-good mechanic charges $60 an hour at minimum, a personal mechanic (exclusively to one customer) is driving a Dodge Viper with a Corvette at home waiting for them to drive it...... and there favorite vehicle in their garage to drive is the Gas Guzzling Hummer that the have to fill up 3 times a day....
a good doctor charges you $90 to walk in the office door and say hello... a private physician is living in a massion in Malibu with a Cabin in Lake Tahoe and three other homes for when he just wants to get away and all of them come complete with maids and a garage full of cars for his cheaufer to drive him around in and that's just when he walks in your house and says hello....
exclusivity costs ALOT....
tell her she wants you exclusively her baker for the weekend and the whole time you would normally take to work on a cake then you'll gladly do it for $75 an hour for 10 hours a day and any day you touch her cake you wont touch another one but that'll be $750 a day plus the cost of her cake....... and i'd also let her know that should she call and continue to add stress to your life that you'll charge her the cost of the private physician you have to hire to recover from having her as a customer.
She's simply trying to take advantage of you because you aren't a commercial bakery and you havent got a business already set up in a public setting....
and seriously, can you imagine the drama you will be agreeing to by agreeing to her terms? she thinks if you will agree to that then you will be at her becon call all the time. so when she decides the day before the party to change the theme or the colors or whatever, that'll you're her exclusive baker and you should live through her and make her a whole new cake over night and just get rid of the one you already made.... I mean think about it... she hasnt even placed the order yet and she's already trying to tell you how to run your business..... i would hate to think what she would be like if you actually agreed to make the cake......
I dont think her daughter is the princess it sounds like the Mom has the delusion that she is the princess and the world revolves around her....
Good luck.... again i reitterate you are a better person than I am.
Ugh! I can't wait for this party to get started!! Set someone up to guard the cake. I wouldn't put it past her to try and ruin the day.
I'd HATE to have her as a friend let alone FAMILY. yuck!

No kidding!
At least you can choose your friends. You're just stuck with family.

I'm with you ... I'm now trying to convince myself it's dynomite, just to get that other image out of my head! Pardon me while I leave the forum to go barf!
Okay all y'all wussies! I'll say it. I'm not shy.
(at the risk of offending churchladi.... cover your eyes, my dear)... it's a used tampon.

Ummm...I just have to ask: If the smiley has 'pms' why would it be 'used'?
On the original topic: HOW MUCH LONGER UNTIL THIS PARTY? I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!
Well ma'am, I have no idea, but there seems to be blood flying in all directions when she swings it around.
Oh lordy.... now I have to go back and look at the dang picture... yall are too funny!!
Good luck CakeDiva, I can not wait to hear about the party. I love the previous idea of making that avatar to give to the witch. Maybe on a small sample cake just for her, to see what she's missing!
I just found this thread now, I am so pleased you are not doing her cake.
BUT PLEASE PLEASE tell us what you have planned for the other cake!
OK, I wasn't about to go through 10 pages of this, so forgive me if this has already been said.
It sounds more to me like she in conflict with the other person holding the party that weekend, and not as though she is genuinely that concerned with the product you present.
If she is booking through you, then she is already aware of the quality of your work.
This is spite work, pure and simple. And if she wants to be spiteful, then she needs to pay a premium price. How many cakes of this type do you think you could actually provide for a single weekend? That is what she would have to pay for her exclusive contract with you.

Ok, I just read the whole story, and I can't wait to see the cake you are doing and certainly can't wait to hear about the party.
I'm sure you are going to have FUN at the party!
Keep us updated.
