Ouch

There's a reason I haven't updated for a while.

I've just been so darn busy! :oD Unfortunately, the upshot of that is I've been on my feet A LOT and I have tendonitis in my feet. It's agony :o(

I'm getting enquiries almost on a daily basis now... people are not only hearing of my by word-of-mouth, but they're doing Google searches for the type of cake they want, I'm coming up on the first or second page a lot of the time. So that's fantastic!!!!

I was up until quarter to four this morning, finishing the wedding cake that's on the 'other blog'. I can hardly see straight, if I'm honest. In fact, as soon as I've finished this, I'm having a wee snooze!!!

The bride was really pleased with the cake.

I really like how the roses turned out - I'm not a confident rose maker. But they look lovely.

I've got a busy week, so I have got to REALLY plan my time well.

Wednedsay I'm meeting a friend at Brent Cross.
Friday I'm meeting a friend at Bluewater. I'm especially excited about this, because she's a friend I haven't met before (no, I haven't gone mad! She's a friend I made via the British Sugarcraft Guild website.) Oh, and did I mention I've got two cakes for Saturday?????????

Oh, erm... and it's my niece's birthday on 2nd May and I promised her a SpongeBob SquarePants cake! Eeeeeeeeeeek!!

I'll be fine. I can do it!!!!

Mind you, it wouldn't have been that long ago that I'd have been panicking, wondering what on earth I'd done, taking on two cakes for the same day and also arranging to meet a friend the day before. Hmmm.... well, maybe it was a wee bit 'lacking in planning'?

The week after that, I've got a First Holy Communion cake. That's a fruit cake and is already baked. The week after that, I've got a make-up bag cake. And then nothing until the 27th, when I need to have made 30 cookies for a baby-naming.
