When my sister was here this past week, I baked some cupcakes that came from a box that has three mixes by Cobblestone Kitchens. They sounded pretty good, so I decided to buy them... they come in three different flavors - Chocolate Caramel, Strawberry Vanilla and Lemon Poppyseed. I don't know what the crap happened, I followed the directions to a T, and the batter for the chocolate caramel (the only ones I have made at the moment!) was very fudge like. My brain didn't click on and I didn't bother to change it so they were a bit, ehm, hard. Frosting comes with the mixes and so I made it like it said on the box and it had NO flavor. I didn't even think to put vanilla extract in it because once again, I'm totally awesome... so I threw a bit of pumpkin spice on it, which you couldn't taste at all. So, it ended up tasting like ass and I threw most of those cupcakes away. Here they are though, in all of it's crappy glory. PS, I still can't frost a damn and trying to wash out the pastry bag was disgusting... I hate hate hate having oily hands due to shortening and ugh, I don't even want to think of that. I'm a priss when it comes to that, for some reason.
Ahh, look at those sweet frosting skills. Mhm. ;)
Anyways, as expected, Blue Cross Blue Shield never called me back. How am I supposed to gain experience in a field (administrative) if no one bothers to hire me and give me a chance? I want to get out of retail and I know I am great with customer service, but none of these damn companies bother to give me the time of day. It's not fair. I know I can be considerate on the phone than half of those people you talk to to get help with big companies like that! I applied for Kohl's today though, as a stock associate, so I'm hoping I get that job. The hours seem good and I always loved doing stock. When I'm at a store, I rearrange stuff if it's out of place, haha. I'm lame, I know! (AND I JUST BURNT THE FUCK OUT OF MY THROAT. DAMN YOU TEA... ow ow ow!)
Tomorrow is my husband and I's sixth wedding anniversary! Not bad considering after a week of knowing him (and I met him online, by the way!) I moved in, and four months later, we got married. $25 wedding, ftw, ladies! I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend.
