Retirement Cake

So my latest cake was made for a woman who attended a baby shower where I had made some cupcakes and cake pops. While I believe this cake is far from my best work, I do think that the logos came out pretty sweet!! I used colored sugar then piped on top of it...can't say that I'll ever do that again though LOL!!! In the end she absolutely loved it and even referred me to some of her people!

Wedding Day/Dottie's Birthday Night

On Saturday, March 17th at 1pm, Mujer married the man she loves!! Tons of pics so I'll jump right to it!

Forever Friends

When I was in middle school, I had 2 bestfriends, Erin and Trevina. They both left before high school and we just kinda grew apart. Erin ended up doing me dirty but Trevina, I had always wondered about. Fast forward 13 years: She contacts me on FB about 2 months ago and it turns out she lives 2 towns over from me!! We set up a date to meet up and this is the look I came up with:





This is Trevina...

...and we've been thick as thieves ever since!!



Nita's Wedding

Congratulations goes out to my childhood friend for marrying the love of her life! They are adorable together and I wish them the best! #BlackLove While I didn't make the wedding, I did make the reception. Here's the look I went with:




The bride and I...

Be on the lookout for some awesome makeup from moi!! #TooGeeked Check it out!! Maybe we could do some together... :-)

UGH!!!

To those that actively follow,

I apologize for my disappearance. For the last year and a half I've "borrowed" internet from my neighbors but they recently locked their connection and blogging is hard to do without the internet!! I'm going to visit my mom this weekend so prepare to be bombarded...I have been taking tons of pics and have many posts lined up for you all!!!

Sorry again!!
