Now
Delphi - what kind of friend would I be if I said "yes"?
Truth is, could I? Yeah. Would I? Nope. I don't have licensing rights to do SW cakes, so where as I COULD do one for personal use, it would be illegal for me to make one for sell. I have made six SW cakes in the past, but all were for personal use as we have a Star Wars party every couple of months. The coolest one I made I stole from a concept I found of CoolestCakes where it was a working volcano from Mustafar. THAT CAKE ROCKED! And probably the only time I had a cake collapse (my fault, I was being lazy and didn't want to use supports since it wasn't going to leave my house). BUT! The collapse was AWESOME because it made the lava look insanely real! Never thought a collapse would work until the Mustafar cake
And the kids loved it as the volcano was actually a "working" volcano with a resevoir with water and dry ice. Got lots of photos and video of that one. (Technically, it is also illegal for me to make one for personal use AND photograph, but they are a lot more lax on that, thankfully.) I am actually insanely lucky that I don't like cake, because life would be hades if I did, considering the fact I make money off these babies and ALWAYS have something close at hand. But, if you want to fnd a way to be turned off by sugar, hang around it for 24-72 hours straight. It will get to the point that the smell alone will disgust you and make you sick, much less the taste.
AND! Have fun with the BF today!
As
kidlets put it, there's just something about being up to your elbows in frosting that kicks all the desire for cake out the window. And man, does it ever!
Leaves - THAT IS AWESOME!
amandie - your "binge" could have been a lot worse. I mean, my last binge, which thankfully was a few months ago, involved an ENTIRE order of Texas Cheese Fries!
I mean, that was my calorie allowance FOR THE DAY...and it was NOT the only thing I ate that day! Count your blessing you had reserve...I am VERY proud of you!
to the challenge
logan! Good luck on your goal!
jessicado - Sucks your scale isn't budging. I'm sure you'll get through this soon though!
to the
top tenners! JOB WELL DONE!!!
Well...good news...my weight up came down this morning, so must be retaining water from my pulled muscle in my back. Feeling better today, but still going to take it easy for another day or two. No need to reinjure. No need to landslide another flair up when I am still having shortness of breath. Just...a....few...more....days... Although, I am craving a workout like mad. Who'd thought I'd WANT to work out
on completing your paper so you can go for a run! Enjoy it if you're able to. Not doing much today other than errands, cook dinner and dart league.
