Today's cake.


Thought I'd do a quick update here. Haven't posted a cake up here in forevurrrrr.







I love all the characters, can't decide who's my favourite,
I think Amy is the funniest though.

Who's your favourite Big Bang Theory cast??

Hello! It's been a while!

I haven't been updating as often last year cause my old job was really demanding... I didn't have free time to do other stuff or make cakes, I realized I missed out on many things and I missed making cakes, so I started to think about what I can do all over again.... I either get started now or never.

I wanted a full time job where I didn't have to work so many hours .
 I wanted more free time to make cakes!
 I know what you're thinking, but trust me, a job like that exists lol.

It was around August, I started getting the idea of being a Flight Attendant full time (only work 70-80 hours a month), perfect! If I can fit in a part time supply teaching job for the school board (only two days a week), that would be awesome!  Weekends I can make cakes....

I'd have to see if both jobs are hiring, and apply, and somehow convince them to hire me. It was a long shot.

So, just my luck, in August AC was hiring, I applied and didn't get a call back but I didn't give up, I applied again in September and they called me back!.. I was also lucky to catch the York Region School Board website on a day they posted hiring ads for supply work, normally they'll post it up and within a week they'll have enough submissions and they'll take it down.  I got called in for in person interviews for both places,  after many interviews, a medical test, exams, and training.. 5 months later, I got both jobs!

I passed the AC training and started flying first week of February.
I'll be on the supply list second week of March.

Every thing is coming together! I am so incredibly happy!
 It's kind of crazy how I'm a Flight Attendant now,
 I always knew I wanted to teach, but flying never crossed my mind...
I've flew a few times already, and I love it!

Anyways, here are some pictures from my FA graduation.

I didn't take any cake orders for 2 months so I could focus on training,
I really missed caking so for our graduation, I made our phase a cake!

 

This cake was what we saw for the entire month of training, a messy desk.



A close up of the sticky notes, says Thank You to our wonderful instructors!

 

The cake compared to the real manuals.



Me with my cake at grad.



That's my instructor, his girlfriend made the airplane cake!



Our grad night celebration.



I wasn't ready, but the girls look gorgeous here!




 
I met T at my very first interview! I then saw her at the group interview,
medical test, etc, and we ended up in the same class... we'll be flying together
to Tampa end of March! From day 1 to flying together .

So that's what I've been up to. I have so much free time now, excited to start blogging again!

So I downloaded the Snapeee app onto my iphone,
and I can't stop Snapeee-ing!!!

It's like Instagram, except it's waaaaay cuter.
There's over 23897498347 shades of pink and hearts and bow ties to choose from.
I'm a girl. I need 23897498347 different styles of bow ties.
The filters are great too, makes me look 10 years younger,
eyes biggers, skin clearer LOL. I wish I can buy their filters in a bottle.

The best part is, I can finally watermark my cake photos
and post them somewhere instantly.
I used to do it on photoshop on my desktop and my cake photos
are posted over a month after the cake is made lol.

Anyways........

Add me if you use any of the apps :)

I think they have someone who's constantly photoshopping
every Snapeee photo people upload, they made me 10 years younger here haha.
















 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY E!

She turned 8...
every year I make her something for her birthday,
the first year, I made her baby blocks, A-Z, 0-9, happy faces, sad faces,
shapes, and hearts etc.. out of yarn.

I can't believe that was 8 years ago.

This year, I wanted to make her a cake video,
she thinks it's "cool" mommy knows how to use YouTube lol.
I kinda do. I didn't know what kind of cake to make her,
then her Draw Something obsession started haha. That made it easy.

________________________

Every morning I love asking her,
"How long have you been in my life?"

She'll reply,
"Eight."

And I'll say,
"How long have I been in your life?"

She'll laugh and say,
"Eight!"

And I'll say,
"What a coincidence!"

and then we'll both laugh our heads off,
we've been doing this since she was 3 years old,
she still finds it funny.

8 years? Really.. has it been 8 years...
She's growing up way too fast.















Play time!!!



Happy Birthday, I love you so much.

So here's my new hobby lol...
latte art.




My first attempt, a bear.



Second one, its' a lion!


All day at work, I was thinking..
PLEASEEEEEEE,
SOMEONE TELL ME THEY WANT A LATTE!
I WANNA MAKE A LATTE!
LATTE
LATTE
LATTE
YOU WANT A LATTE?!
YOU DO?!?!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
I'M MAKING A LATTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is what happens, when you make your
first two attempts at latte art, and drink both
of them one after another.

I need to lay off the lattes tomorrow lol,
or at least limit myself to only one latte a day.

BUT IT'S SOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!!!



My face today.

I made a lot of latte 'hearts' but looked like asses lol.
Damn latte art is not easy.

I'm gonna need some help to fall asleep tonight.
Cough syrup or beer?
