Whoopie! (pies)

Well, it's almost 9pm on a Sunday and, whilst Paul has hijacked my ipad trawling ebay to buy himself a quad bike(mid life crisis, me thinks), I have just sat down after a very, very busy day. Had to be up at 6.30 am (on  a Sunday!!!!!), go to a farmers market, finish the market and drive home for over 30 minutes, rest for an hour, cook dinner, eat dinner and get baking again-this time a few cupcakes and choc chip whoopie pies-I am S H A T T E R E D!!!!
Lucky I love baking!
Anyway, I have put one of my plans for the new year into action, I have bought an edible printer (not a printer you can eat, a printer that prints edible pictures) and so far so good, I think it's a good little investment.
The other plan for this year is still a little secret, i shall reveal all in due course.
Already had a provisional booking for a wedding in August so today's market was worth doing. I don't like to think I stand there freezing for no reason.
Right, looks like the quad bike has been purchased( I might even have a little go myself), I'm going to treat myself to some popping candy-my new addiction...I like to live on the edge!

Well, the holiday season is(almost) over

It has been reasonably busy, almost forgot about 2 different orders but all's well that ends well!
Onwards and hopefully upwards from here, there are a few things in the pipeline and it will be very good news for Missi's cakes if any of them come true.
Very proud of my last cake, will put a pic later-the lady wanted a girly fashion themed cake and told me to go for it, make it over the top-so I did!
Ordered lots of new moulds as I'm desperate to start practicing the ideas from all the cake books Santa got me for Christmas. Exciting new cupcake designs to come!
Donated another batch of cupcakes to Keech children's hospice and I got invited to do a cupcake decorating class with the children some time this year, looking forward to that very much.
Off to play(read-'to work out how to use') my new ipad now!
