started...

I started my contest cake today.

• Rice Krispie Treats - check
• Shape into a ball - check
• Eat some of the Rice Krispies - check, check, check
• Shape tiny little houses - with gooey treats - check
• Tons leftover - check, means yummy snack for the week

Tomorrow I will bake the cake, color the fondant, carve the cake, frost the cake... If I have time I will assemble it all... If not, I will assemble it on Saturday.

I have been trying to decide what to do with this cake, so I think I am going to take it to Chick-fil-a in the afternoon (do you think they would think that is weird?) and show them all how much I love that place! I have loved the free breakfast tuesdays this whole month as well as those amazing little nuggets...

Start-Up Phase

I just recently noticed that everything about my life is in the start-up phase.

• My Job - Just started with the company recently
• Finders Keepers - The Company that is in the start-up phase and about to take off!
• My living situation - I am trying to decide whter or not to live in Colorado Springs or Denver... decisions, decisions.
• Adulthood - I have to laugh at this one. Because of being a student for so many years and gracious parents, I am not just starting to take over phone, insurance and other bills... yikes. Not sure I like this part of the start-up phase.
• Church - I definitely took foregranted my community group and church in NWA. It is hard trying to find somewhere by your self. Even though I did it in Arkansas, it just seems to get harder... I just need to suck it up and go!

So with all this starting and change I have gotten really excited several times because I am really defining my life right now! It is grea tot have fresh starts and be able to make what you want happen...

So have a great week and be inspired to start something new in your life. I know it has been the best thing for me right now!

**Warning - In this start-up phase there is nothing that is consistent, normal, or predictable**

Cowboy Cake

A cake that I made this past week for a little boy's 1 year old birthday! It was a picture from a napkin that I tried to replicate... It was really detailed, but I thoroughly enjoyed it!
