I made it!

Hallelujah! I'm SO SO SO glad May is over! :o) I'm going to randomly post my favorite works from the month throughout the blog because it just looks better than piling them at the end.

It was my busiest month so far - *thank you faithful customers* - but I am definitely wiped after May. Mother's Day, a trip to Wisconsin with the family, a few graduations, a few birthdays, and the end of the school year! (Not that the school thing matters a ton to my family, but it does signify some freedoms - pools/splash pads opening, friends/family off work for the summer, zoos, trips, theme parks, reading program.)

While I'm am VERY thankful for how quick things have picked up for me, I will be taking fewer orders over the summer so that I can enjoy time with my family before winter hits again and has us cooped up! So, get your orders in early! I don't need exact times or exactly what you want - but I do need approximate dates.

I will say, I cannot wait for the day that my children are old enough to help make things. My older two are *dying* to help decorate and bake and we do that for our own desserts - but no customer orders. They haven't yet gotten it down that we don't lick, eat, blow on any of the food products that are for customers. : p So they aren't ready for that yet. They are great helpers in other ways though. Using my kitchen as frequently as I do, now requires MUCH MORE cleaning!! Doing the dishes and sweeping and mopping the floors are their jobs, and they do a pretty good job. Of course, they still get the "job" of testing new recipes too. I would probably guess that's their favorite...

Thanks for reading! Until next time!!
