The Eleventh Letter

We are going on day 5 of just "me and the girls" (Stella and Hailey that is.) James has been up north visiting his family in New York since last week. Unfortunately, my new job kept me from going with him, but we have still managed to have a good time home alone without daddy. I had a day off of work today and decided to relax. Caught up on some emails, created a new blog for my friend's wedding, and sat down for a marathon of one of my favorite shows: Ace of Cakes. The Food Network has a host of AWESOME shows, but this one stands out for me. Chef Duff and his witty crew of bakers, decorators, sculptors, architects and designers at Charm City Cakes, keep me on the edge of my seat as they attempt to create crazy, towering, edible shapes. It's so impressive. Doesn't hurt that the cake-gang consists of young, inventive hipsters in Baltimore, MD. Their long hours and brainstorming sessions remind me agency life in NYC. If you want to check out an episode or 2, you will have to stay up late (or DVR it!) The show is on at different times between 10pm and 1am. Or you can watch episodes ANY time of the day at foodnetwork.com. Let them eat cake!





..and as for "the girls" they like the show too! Since mommy is so addicted, they have a nice warm body to snuggle up to for a nap while I'm on the couch. Works out for all of us!
