Ever since November of 2010 i have wanted to create my own cake decorating business but really didn't think i could until i stumbled onto salt cake city website and saw she offered classes. My main problem in the 2yrs prior wasn't the baking cakes/making frosting from scratch, it was doing the fondant and learning how to dirty ice. But on November 16th 2012 all that changed cuz i finally was able to take her beginning cake class and have been a mad woman ever since. As most who know me personally know i had a huge drug problem for most of my life and have been clean and sober since June 20 2009. I never believed i had the right to have a dream cuz of all the hurt and anger i caused. But i know this is false now, Everyone deserves a dream and the right to pursue it no matter what. But a dream is only that a dream if u don't have any way to fulfill it. Mrs. Jennifer Hill help me to realize my dream by offering this class and her undying help since then whenever i bug her which is a lot. Having someone believe in your dream who isnt a friend or relative is an awesome feeling and i am forever glad i met her. I know all my mistakes good or bad has brought me here. She will never ever know what this means to me even though i tell her all the time.
So this is my first blog of the cake obsession that will make all my dreams come true. My first offical cake is coming up. My angel boy's 2nd birthday is on saturday and i am making him a truck cake. I thought earlier in the week that i couldn't do it but now those fears are gone cuz i know that i can do it. Having someone in your corner who is willing to answer any question, give me unlimited feedback and their knowledge and experience is the greatest gift. Everyone who comes in to your life comes into for a reason, season or lifetime. I know that Jennifer came into my life for a reason and that is to help me realize that its not a pipe dream. With hard work i can be great at it. She has no idea how much she means to me in the short time ive known her. She has said she only showed me some caking tools and i brought the passion and fire but that is making what she has shown me seem trivial. Here's to my dreams and future.
Happy Caking
