Birthdays and Business

Fancy meeting you on here!

Time for an update, but first I must apologize on the food promise. Here's the funny thing, I've been trying out a TON of new recipes but I always forget to take a picture. I'd like to blame it on my taste-tester. For him, when food is ready, it must be eaten, no time for pictures. I'm going to work on being better at the picture part, but the new recipe challenge has been a blast. Back to updates, Dad celebrated a big birthday where mom and I so cleverly decorated it black and yellow and stuck with a corvette theme. Dad longingly dreams of owning a corvette one day, and after his birthday he will still have to continue to dream. Sorry Dad! He did get a yellow corvette cake though! If you didn't hear about our cake fiasco, well then consider yourself lucky. What an ordeal for that cake, but it was very much worth it! An absolutely wonderful day with family and friends to celebrate DAD! Here's a picture of Gig helping with the decorations, she was crucial to the entire process and I couldn't resist snapping a picture of her in action. Don't you love the decorations?? I personally feel Sandra Lee from Semi-Homemade would love my tablescape :) Next up, trip to NYC for Dad's interview on the Huckabee show! Who so graciously offered to accompany him on his trip, ME! It was an unforgettable father-daughter trip, and I will treasure those memories forever! We packed so much into the trip including a Yankees game, yummy deli food, trip to the top of the Empire state building, a nice dinner before our Broadway play, and of course the Huckabee show! I hope you all were able to see the interview. I was so proud of Dad, he really knocked this one out of the park! Not that I doubted it for one second!
