Today’s been a good day so far, stepped on the scale this morning and since last Monday I am down 4 pounds. I know it doesn’t seem like a lot but it was good to see that all this healthy eating has been making a difference, and besides 4 pounds a week is more than the recommended weight loss in a week , I believe, so that’s great.
Things have finally settled down in the Squish house. It’s not so busy and I like that. This weekend on Saturday, Mr Squish and I will be celebrating 5 years together. Crazy time! I can’t believe it’s been 5 years already. I still remember our first date and how I circled the building twice before going in because I was SO incredibly nervous lol I almost backed out, can’t imagine where I’d be if I had. It all started with strawberry milkshakes at the coffee pub and here we are today 5 years later, married and thinking of babies. Just wow. Time flies!
Our Winnie the Pooh cake turned our amazing. It took us 3 tries but it looks awesome! The first time Winnie’s head fell off lol It was tragic. The second time he stuck to the pan and crumbled into chunks. By the 3rd time we were weighing other options but Mr Squish was determined to make it work. I mean at that point it was pride lol We couldn’t let a damn cake win! It finally worked, although just barely. His head started to fall off and he ripped right up the middle so we stuffed him full of icing and away we went. I think he’s our best cake yet. I’m really proud of us! As I mentioned before, I figured out how to post pictures so here are some pictures of the cakes we’ve made.
I’m really excited because we’re starting to get requests for cakes from friends and family and I think we’re finally ready that we can start charging people; Nothing major maybe $40 or something. I didn’t feel comfortable asking for money before because we were just starting out but as Mr Squish pointed out we need to recover our costs of making the cake and using all our own products to make them so I mean that makes sense to me but I’m still not ready to ask for a lot. We’re no Duff or Cake Boss lol
Anyway, here’s our cakes!
