Hello again. It's been a great summer for me. I've taken a cake break and traveled to Louisiana and Texas and have been so busy. Even on my vacation, I worked! Some of you may not know, but I do more than just cake. I embroider, sew and paint, yes, I am a "Jill" of all trades. I've even cut the family and extended families hair. Scary!! I'm just happy I wasn't the person sitting in the chair at the time.
Any way, I simply wanted to touch base with you about the blog. I have changed how I am posting pictures now. You will find them under the tabs listed on the right side of the blog. The newest photos are not the first pictures you see, because I have found it easier to add them to the end. Please feel free to browse and leave comments. I am still adding photos and I've even started back to work on cake.
I hope you have a blessed rest of the summer and I'll be getting back with you soon.

Cake is like life - It's everywhere!
O.K. maybe not in your life, but in mine. I really do enjoy setting myself goals to see what I can accomplish.
This past week I had the privilege to make baby blocks for a baby shower. My customer sent a picture of what MS called petite fours that were actually mini cakes-baby blocks. I was happy to create blocks, but I did it with a "Toni" twist (or so a customer has told me!). If you would like to compare the two works of art, send me a note and I'll send you the web site where the photo came from. Not to toot my own horn, but I was rather pleased with the final result. If you know me, I pretty much would not say something like that, so please forgive. I want to share them with you and would appreciate if you could let me know what you think about them. They were no where near "perfect", I simply enjoyed being creative.
Then another cake I was able to make was kind of a repeat, but not a repeat. It was an open mouth bass, jumping through the cake. This time I added, cat tails, rocks and plant leaves you might find between your toes if walking in the water. There were even 2 lily pads. There was no stress or issues with this cake at all. I truly enjoyed this one.
To see any of my creations, all you need to do is click on the tabs at the top of the page. Remember, I'm reworking my blog so the photos are not all there, but they will be as soon as possible.
Have a very blessed week!
