a paying gig!

Okay it is official, I have been the worst blogger ever!! I was in Texas for a week, and then last week was sick so I was hibernating.

No more excuses!! Corny made me a sign up sheet to sell cake slices at work and tomorrow I have 11 to deliver, and hopefully after today that number will have doubled! I will be up all night making 4 cakes, but that's okay by me. I hope this is something I can start doing every week, and word will spread across the airport. So when Corny gets home today at 3 he is in charge of the kids and I will be a slave to the kitchen. I think I might need to invest in a double oven if my plan of selling slices really works. Kim also called me last night and asked if I can send her some cake truffles for her class a church that meets Monday nights. Yay! My only concern is that they will ship okay and stay fresh. I will need to send them out on Friday, but if I get them to her on Saturday and she refrigerates them I am hoping they will hold up. This will be my test, and Kim will let me know.

I also have to practice practice practice Courtney's wedding cakes this week. Only two weeks until the wedding and I am getting a wee bit stressed. It will be my first three layer cake, and it has to be perfect. I am going to do one layer and decorate it tonight and hopefully it will make me feel much more comfortable. The design is not too difficult, it is just the time and work that really is stressing me out.

Well I promise tomorrow to post pictures and follow up with how my first night of baking for my first paying gig goes. It will be a long night......
