I DID IT, I DID IT, I DID IT!!!
I made my first fondant cake!
I used the marshmallow fondant..it was fairly easy to work with!
I am so proud of myself!
Now that I know I can, I will!!!

Good morning all!
I am sorry I have been MIA the last couple of days..
I had a very emotional Monday.
My 4 month old puppy got really sick, really fast and we had to put her down yesterday. Heart wrenching!
To make this horrible situation worse, my boy had just come home from his mother's. So..He had to be here for this horrible decision.
We are all recuperating.
I still have not tried making the fondant yet..maybe I will bake today to ease my mind.
Hopefully, I will post some happier things later this week.

It has been quite a busy weekend!
Got my birthday chocolate pies delivered, started cleaning out the building and getting the stuff in it ready to sell and MY MOM WAS HERE! :)
It is always good to see my mom! It makes me happy!
I have decided I am going to venture into the world of fondant...I know, I know....but I have to try!
I am getting ready to put together a cake book and hopefully get my Facebook page up and running. So much in the works right now!
I am very excited!

Well...spent the day with a killer headache while job hunting.
I know, interesting combination.
The event I had planned for Saturday
is being postponed until August 1st. That kind of sucks, but I am still optimistic! One step at a time right?!
Tomorrow I am going to to help clean out a shop that I hope will eventually be my bakery.
I will be making pies tomorrow for a client! Yeah!
Have a great night my friends!

No baking today.
Today I built a fence. Yep, me. All by myself!
I am so proud of me today!
The next two days are going to be crazy!
I have pie orders and I am doing a meet and greet Saturday morning. I am very excited.
I will be baking goodies to sell and try to get The Twisted Baker name out there!

So yesterday was our anniversary-9 years!
We were discussing how we thought it seemed so much longer!
It seems our marriage has had a lot more down's than ups...not because of lack of love, but lack of money, time, resources..just life in general.
Yesterday, I made the decision NO MORE!
I have been blessed with a great man who loves me unconditionally. Even when life happens and things get difficult he is a rock! Every year for the last 9 we have said "maybe next year"...I am done saying that.
TODAY...I will make things happen. We have been blessed with so much that I take for granted daily!
Yes it is a Cumbaya moment! Today, I make a difference, today I make it better!
Side note: our anniversary dinner was homemade chicken pot pie and homemade chocolate cake!
Sorry, no pics this time!

Today in Texas it is raining and cool.
Yes, it is July.
Yes, it should be 100°.
Today I am thankful for the much needed rain.
I am off to pick up some glass pie pans from a customer so that I can "fill them with goodies" for him. It is kind of a great trade off as I do not have to invest in pans for him and I have a great customer!
Have a great day and don't let anyone step on your dreams!

So tonight I have an order for chocolate pie...sounds simple enough, right?
Well let me tell you a little something about pie crust you may not know- pie crust is mean, she is a temperamental bitch!
Sometimes pie crust is like a lover..soft and silky..feels good in your hands...and sometimes..pie crust is like a little pms bitch...hard and doughy and does not want to be touched!
I will post again and let you know which version of crust I get tonight.
.it is always a surprise!
