Hey guys, I know I haven't been around much lately, but I just had to share with my cake friends! I was featured on the cover of the business section of the local paper yesterday! You can read the article here:

http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/jul/07/focuseden-cakes-baking-personal-expressions/

I have already had a pretty good response from the article, and I was excited about it - I wanted to share with people who would understand my excitement!

Thanks for everything I've learned from all of the people on this forum - you guys really are the best icon_smile.gif
