Wedding season!

Wedding season has officially begun here. Well it began a while ago, I just have been too busy to post anything on here!
My first wedding in May was an order for Mini-cinnamon buns. After experimenting with different recipes, we found a winner. And then baking them fresh that morning, and baking 100 over again, the cake made it to the reception with time to spare.
Thank you to the bride and groom for giving me the opportunity to do something creative and different for their wedding. It was fun to do something out of the ordinary.




"Return to Sender...."

So at my real full time job, (baking is my fake one!), I open a lot of mail for Service Canada. And every so often we get in letters stamped with "RTS" or Return to Sender. Does anyone else have a problem with breaking out in song when the lyrics are right in front of you!!! I know of one other person, my co-worker that sits beside me, and every time we come across one of these, we break out in song, with our best Elvis voices and sing "Return to sender....address unknown.... no such number.... no such zone."
Ok, so I have definitely deviated from the reason I am writing this post, but I couldn't help myself.
I got to make a cake for a Postie herself. It was her birthday, and a red Canada post box was the order for the cake. I had fun with this one, as always, and felt a little connected to it, as I open mail all morning at my job as well!
Here's a tribute to our Canadian Postal workers! Thanks for all your hard work. I love getting snail mail!
