You know there are days, when you go to work and you just know it’s going to be an awesome day. That day was Thursday for me. My boss left for me a contract to do from top to bottom ( excluding baking, cutting, icing and stacking, which was perfectly done by Matt and Chris),…

The great thing about having Orthodox Easter in USA is that usually it is a week later, so you can catch all the Easter sales.The bad thing about having Orthodox Easter in the USA is that usually it is a week later, and your kids are expecting to celebrate both, which means Easter Bunny comes…

My little pumpkin was sick for 4 days straight. I hate seeing her so unhappy and cranky, but I love snuggling with her, when the only thing that makes her better is my kisses and my hugs. How can you say “No” to these hazel eyes with fluttering eyelashes? ( guess where she learned that…

Just some cute pictures of some sugar fashion. I hope you like them! 🙂 Something for our favorite men as well. The drawing is done free hand with buttercream. I really like how the brass detail came out. Fancy belts are also very popular. Some lace for cute girls! Ruffles are…
Read MoreGoodbye and thank you, 2011!
It might sound strange but when I woke up today the first thing I wanted to do was check my social media accounts. No, I’m not that kind of person, who sleeps with her cell in hand, looking for updates on her FB throughout the night, but today is different. So, why the sudden curiosity,…
