A little embarrassed

Well I never thought I would be one of those fans that bug people on twitter and hope that they answer me back. Who am I kidding? Yes I did.

But guess what?!?!? 

I got a reply today! And I just totally had to blog about it. 

I'm a little embarrassed to say that I watch Pretty Wicked Moms on lifetime because it is well ridiculous most of the time. So much drama but I can't stop watching it! 

I started following a couple of the moms from the show on twitter. I noticed that one of the moms makes an effort to reach out to her fans. So I tweeted her a few days ago...but no reply :(

Today though, I saw that she was on and I tweeted her. And guess what? She responded to my tweet and favorited two of my tweets. 
Not true unless there is proof right? Well here it is...

Something Sweet

As you know, I have a little business from home with another lady from work. We have done quite a lot this year and haven't blogged about it. We did really well during Valentine's Day. We made chocolate heart suckers for the elementary school we work at for the PTA to sell as candy grams. We did get some profit from it too. The kids loved them! We only had two molds, each doing only 4 and we ended up making over 500 I think. 
We also sold red velvet cupcakes, frosted sugar cookies, chocolate covered strawberries, and boxes of homemade chocolate. 
 
 
 

We also sold some stuff for Mother's Day. We sold mini frosted sugar cookies, and edible flower pots. 
 
 
 
The pot is a cupcake with fondant around it. The dirt was crushed Oreos and the flower is a large frosted sugar cookie. 

We also had the opportunity to make a wedding cake the first weekend of June. It was my first time making a wedding cake. The bottom tier was French vanilla cake with Nutella filling and the top tier was a chocolate cake with raspberry filling. The couple loved how it turned out and we were told that it got a lot of compliments from the guests on the taste and texture. We are so glad that the couple loved the taste and the style of it. We had fun making it.

Happy Birthday Drew!


So Drew's birthday was actually in April but I'm trying to catch up on my past events. 
His birthday is April 19th. He turned 24 this year. Holy cow! He will be a quarter next year ;) 
Well I decided to kind of go all out this year for him. I made his birthday cake with some help from Kathy. It was a Halo master chief helmet cake. My very first real cake not just cake mix in a pan. I actually carved it myself. No special pan for it or anything. It turned out alright and he could recognize what it was so that's a plus! :)

 
 
 
I also put together a surprise party for him at Buffalo Wild Wings (his favorite restaurant). His family and several friends came. We had a good time with everyone there. Thank you all for coming! 
His best friend Dakota went to pick Drew up and from just being parked at our complex for 45 minutes got towed. We are so sorry about that. Sorry Dakota! He ended up spending the night at our apartment and we took him to get his car the following morning. 
Well I hope you had a fun birthday Drew! Love you!
