Time escapes me.
Josh and I have been painting a friend's basement this past week, going over there after work and coming home well past our bed time (last night it was 11).
Last week we had a potluck and brought a cake.  That same day I received two requests for cake (and cupcake) from coworkers and they wanted them on the same day - tomorrow.  Praise the Lord I only worked will noon today, or I would have been up all night getting them done.
So here are pictures of the cake I made last week and the cakes I did today and the damage done to my kitchen. I'm not a messy cook but I am definitely a messy cake decorator.

now what?

Sooo, it's been a while. March just came way too fast for me to figure out what to do with it.  I sort of had another challenge lined up but by the time I was ready to start it was the 5th and I was already behind.
Work keeps me busy and exhausted.  But the fact that spring is coming energizes me.  So hopefully I can do more outdoor pictures again soon.
For now I'll just post some random pictures until I find another challenge to take on, or come up with a theme to focus on.  I'm always up for suggestions, and I would love it if anyone was interested in doing a challenge with me.  I love to see the different things people come up with when you have a subject that is open to interpretation.
So, send me your thoughts and ideas.

This was going to be the first picture for the March challenge.
Day 1 was "up".

Money

I wish I could take a picture of my drawer at work.  It usually has nearly $10,000 in it. That is the money I deal with on a daily basis, but personally, I never have cash.  My money is all plastic.

Something I ate

I made cinnamon rolls per Josh's request today.  I didn't have time to take a picture of the finished product, before I had to dash off to work, but this is what they looked like right before they went in the oven. This picture looks even better than when they came out.

Night

We actually have a clear sky tonight, and I wish I could be outside taking better pictures than this, but it's really cold outside and I need to be getting to bed.
So this is the moon from our living room window. Sorry about the quality, there are a couple sheets of glass, a bug screen and plastic insulation between me and the moon, but at least you can see through all of it...

Green

I love the color green.  To me it signifies life and vitality. It is neither a warm nor a cold color, to me it is just fresh and beautiful.
To survive these long winter months, we have a few plants inside, and this one is Spitze.  We found him in bad shape for practically nothing at the grocery store. We've nursed him back to health and now he is producing fresh green sprigs.

Inside my Bathroom Cabinet

We don't really have a bathroom cabinet, what we have is more like cubbies, and believe it or not I did not tidy it up before taking the picture.  So you can get a glimpse of what it really looks like on a day to day basis.
