Latest Cakes

These were made for Genevieve's 4th "Princess Party". Doll and Castle are cakes -- the lollipops are white chocolate in the shape of crowns and castles. Last pic is the birthday girl!

Miche for Michelle

Jen and I were at Tyson's today when we discovered the best invention known to all women-kind that has hit a mall kiosk in the past 20 years. It's called the Miche. Invented by a woman named Michelle, this black and/or brown basic purse is equipped with magnets. In less than the time it takes to say "Miche", you can slap on a new "shell" (if I were her, I would have called them "chelles") on the outside of the purse to completely change the entire look. I bought one brown and one black purse today and got 6 shells -- which means I can have 14 different purses for less than $150. I am in love. And how could I pass up a purse named for and invented by a woman named Michelle?

Sad.

These past two weeks have probably been some of the hardest two weeks of my life. I have had difficulties with family and I have had some terrible experiences at work. I am constantly being tested and it seems everyday is a struggle between doing what I think is right and doing what others think is right. I now find myself questioning all my previous actions and wondering if I have EVER done anything correctly, and if I should continue in the line of work that I am in.

The last time I felt this way was in high school when my entire lunch table decided to turn against me and tell me they all hated me. In order to show this united display against me, they all brought oranges in for lunch (my most hated fruit enemy). I can remember locking myself in the bathroom stall at school and crying on the floor -- the history teacher had to coax me out.

Although a funny and petty story now, it was the end of my world then. I am just hoping I will look back on these two week 10 years from now and think the same thing.
