Happy Birthday Matt!


My youngest child turns 32 today! How is that possible??? I'm only...um...about...40ish myself.

The Children on Easter Sunday






My grandchildren got to ride a horse, ride the tractor and play with colored chicks and ducks. Not to mention, an Easter Egg Hunt at Serenbe and another one at a party next door. Too much fun!

I'm no Bakerella!

but, I try! Fortunately, my grandchildren don't know about the Bakerella blog site! I had great fun on Friday making a checkerboard birthday cake, cake pops, some cupcakes and an Easter basket cake! My little chick cake pops are not too smooth - the heads kept falling off when I dipped them in the melted chocolate - more practice required! Fortunately, they tasted great! The Easter cake was great fun - the eggs are cake covered with fondant and the grass and basket are all buttercream.

Braden is 4!!!


My grandson, Braden, turned four on Saturday. Hard to believe - just yesterday he was a newborn! He's so sweet and funny. He told me now that he's four - he has bigger feet. Are children the most wonderful blessing??? I love the picture of him and my lovely daughter, Krista. They will be in Georgia with me for Easter and I can't wait! I long to live closer to them, but at least we see each other about once a month and talk every day - we are pretty lucky!

Dr. Pam

Now don't be grossed out - I'm posting something very unusual. How often does someone who is not a doctor or in any type of training program to become one (or a nurse) have the opportunity to perform surgical procedures??? I'd guess it doesn't happen very much. But last February I was given the chance to do just that, in a cadaver lab, with my company's sales staff. It was fascinating and just one of the reasons that I really like my job. Hmmm, who knew...I may have missed my true career calling! OK - Seriously, I'm sticking with just cutting cakes!
