i hope y'all had a great weekend!
a couple weeks ago, i was introduced to thecupcakeblog.com. this fabulous site features whimsical cupcakes decorated by true artists. i came across a "the very hungry caterpillar" themed cupcake-cake and knew i had to try to recreate it! it just so happened to be my baby cousin's 1st birthday the following weekend and i was responsible for the cake, so that is exactly what i did.
not bad, if i do say so myself. at first, i wasn't sure how i felt about it, but it grew on me like leaves on a tree. the most challenging part was getting the right shade of green.
it feels good to get so much accomplished with the new business. =)
also, yesterday i was surprised with a package from pennsylvania. i didn't recognize the handwriting or the address, but my sister in the uk had been asking me if i had received a ups package all week! i figured it was just another item for her that she couldn't get delivered overseas, but i was wrong. thinking that i would have to open the package up to put it in another box anyway, i lifted the flap and there it was...a beautiful, white and grey, buffalo check, gauze scarf from j.crew! i immediately tracked down my sister online and she surprised me with an "it's yours"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my readers, you will soon find that i have an extensive scarf collection of all different shapes, sizes, colors, prints, and fabrics. my new one is extremely versatile and i will be wearing it as often as possible. it's light enough to wear in the spring and summer and long enough to wrap around my neck in the fall and winter. i'm actually wearing it to work today paired with a black cardigan and red patent skinny belt =) thank you, sissy! xoxo
