Cold

It’s finally cold here.  I’ve wanted it to feel like winter all season and I’ve finally got it.  This weekend there is a high of 45 and the next day is a high of 46.  Unfortunately, I now am experiencing a different kind of cold.  It was wierd.  Never before have I been able to feel myself coming down with something.  I litterally watched American Idol last night and felt my throat becoming increasingly more irritated.  By 10:30 I was ready to go to bed w/ the humidifier and hopefully not have to go to work the next day.  This morning though, I didn’t feel well but not too bad to not go to work.  I can only hope that I start to feel better so I can really enjoy the cold outside.

Tonight I will have my IAAP meeting and hopefully a really good meal.  I think we are all hoping for a piece of chocolate peanut butter cake.  I’m going to have to learn how to perfect a cake like this as this seems to be everyone’s favorite around here.  I know Joel will for sure. 

Cake decorating classes started up on Sunday.  This week I bring a tub of frosting and we’ll start to learn how to make roses, trims, and clowns among a few other things.  I really think I’m going to enjoy it, especially if my skill takes off.  My final for the four weeks will be a cake that has to have at least 3 techniques we learned on it.  I feel very fortunate to have some knowledge already in my background.  Some of those that are in the class are completely clueless, including a dumb blonde.  But nontheless, I’m enjoying it and am looking forward to the next class.

Things are heating up here at work.  All of a sudden I’m needed.
