Navy, pink and ivory

Yesterday was one of those days that never seem to end. Lots to do at work. One thing on the list was a cake order. The girl I was working with had said that the woman who ordered it said that someone had recommended me and told her to make sure to ask that I do the cake. That was a nice feather in my cap.
They wanted the colors to be navy, pink and ivory.


The deli girl said that the person who picked it up wasn't the same person that ordered it. I couldn't tell whether she liked it or not. Some people will come right out and say what they think of it but this one just sort of looked at it when I brought it out and didn't react at all.

Actually, now that I'm looking at the picture, I don't really like the placement of the roses. Oh well, too late now.

Any way, when I left work it was 54 degrees out. Not only that but the sun was shining. I know to some of you 54 sounds cold but after what we've had it felt heavenly. Today is supposed to hit the low 50's again.

It is beautiful; you are a cake artist. I especially love the color of the creamy dreamy roses. The pink and yellow are so soft looking.

I love it too, I can see why they specifically asked for you. And I'm glad the weather has warmed up for you and that the sun came out.

Yay on the weather (and lucky you for having sun shining!)

Beautiful cake.

Oooh I love the way you arranged the roses...you sure are talented Ann but some people dont know how to react. I know several people who will hardly acknowledge or say an appreciative word even if they like something...it is the way they are made so dont feel your work is not good or that she didnt like it!!
Cheers

I think the cake is perfect. You did what you were asked and it's a shame that some appreciation wasn't forthcoming. Oh well.

Yes, that's a lot warmer than you've had of late. Enjoy.

Have a fabulous day and week, Ann. Big hug to you and tons of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
