Whhooo!
Sweet relief. So Thursday was full of baking. And decorating. And stress. And fun. And then more stress. I was up 'til 4 am getting this cake together (I hate fondant. For serious.) with my step-mom, and we had to leave at 8 am to get to Tacoma for the Living Proof Live events that she helped plan. She was the city coordinator for the Beth Moore event here, so it was A LOT of planning and organizing and running, and then by Saturday at 1 pm it was over...talk about an abrupt ending. At about 3 am, when the fondant was collapsing and tearing from the weight, I was about ready to throw in the towel and just make more cupcakes and call it good. But we made it work.
Then Sunday my mom and I went to the St. Patty's Day Dash that happens annually in Seattle. It's a 5k, and we run it every year. This time we walked, because my mom no longer has cartilage in her knees. :( Actually, we were a little late to the run, and it was pouring rain-- typical-- so we decided just to join in the party. :) There were booths set around, and then an indoor beer garden. SO fun! I ended up running into a fellow ASU alum that I knew from the track team (thanks freshman roomie!) who was responsible for an epic pyramid of empty cups. We laughed about properly representing ASU, of course.
Overall, a great, but full weekend! And now I have a week of homework...

haha. i was just thinking how the heck you got the cup to look all crackly and old, but then realized all your pictures look that way so i thought maybe you had a special camera option for that...but THEN i saw your background and realized none of it was necessarily intentional, and most importantly, that your life isn't ACTUALLY covered in old cracks...just your blog. :)
Haha Krystal, thanks, no, my life ISN'T all covered in old cracks :) Although I'm sure one could make an interesting analogy out of that...
