Birthday reflections! Possibly the most boring thing I’ve ever written.

My birthday of 2012 is totally doneski. I’m 29 years old. It is my last year of my twenties. My sober husband made it spectacular (no Notebook style surprises – just his sincere company is enough for me), his parents called me, and my living extended family members figured it out by this evening and … Continue reading

Reality check: a lesson in humility.

Your favorite fat ass baker here.  I know there’s not much chance of anyone reading this but I feel the need to write about what I’ve been dealing with this week.  Or maybe I should start further back.

Cheesecake texture is something that I am never sure what is ideal. I know I’ve never met a bad cheesecake, but the … Continue reading

Weekly baking round up has been delivered! Part One.

I write novels instead of blog posts, so this will be the first installment of the shit I made last week, ya’ll! If you’ll remember that post from eons ago, I was brainstorming a strawberry or blueberry twist cupcake, since customers eyeballs double in size anytime the frosting resembles soft serve ice cream. Rightfully so! … Continue reading

Progress Update

WordPress, you’re still on my shit list. I don’t have the brainpower to rewrite my baking post just yet, but I still wanted to do a bit of bragging. Yesterday morning, I weighed in at 179.something. Hooray! The scales are finally budging. I’m making a connection between working my legs really hard, having them seem … Continue reading
