Sunday Sweets: Flights of Fancy

Today, we're going to talk about the birds...

(By Viva la Tarta)

...and the bees.

(By Dlishcupcakes)

That's right! We're talking about Things that Fly!

(You look relieved. Why? What else would we talk about?)

There are kites:

(By Sweet Treats by Sandra)

...balloons in bunches:

(By Mutlu Dukkan)

...or filled with hot air:

(By K Noelle Cakes)

...and airplanes!

Sometimes all at the same time:

(By That Baking Girl)

I'd make a kite/balloon/airplane joke here, but I think it'd go over your head.
:D

Let's see, what else?

There are dragonflies:

...and dragons that fly:

(By La Torta Perfetta)

...which means they have to land somewhere.

Don't ever believe pigs can't fly.

(By Carlos Lischetti Sugar Art)

Heck, with enough thrust (or pixie dust) anything can fly.

All the way out of this world!

(By Cakey Cake)

In fact, if I could fly...

(By Alchemists of Cake)

...I think I'd Never Land.

Wouldn't that be Sweet?

Happy Sunday, everyone!

P.S. Hang on, I can't believe we forgot butterflies!

I used this 84-pc butterfly set to make a gorgeous wreath for John's room, I know you crafters are gonna love them:

(3D Butterfly Wall Magnet Set)

They're double-sided and come with both magnets and stickers. Definitely browse the projects in the reviews, there are so many pretty ideas!

You Might Be A Wreckerator If...

Bakers, do you worry that you, too, might be a wreckerator?

Well, have no fear, pastry pros! There are plenty of warning signs to look for:

You Might Be A Wreckerator If....

- ...you consider "happy" a four-letter word.

- ...your cakes have more plastic on them than frosting.

- ...when you say, "I could just eat you up!" to a baby, you really mean it.

"It's...looking at me."
"Ugly little spud, isn't it?"
"I think it can hear you, Ray."

- ...cupcake cakes are your "specialty."

- ...your family crest says, "Spell check is for loosers."

 - ...you not only know what this is, you think it's well done:

- ...you're frequently asked what time the earthquake hit.

- ...you pride yourself on following customer requests to the letter:

And finally, you might be a wreckerator if...

...you have to ban photography in your bakery to stop your cakes from showing up on Cake Wrecks.

(I get the e-mails, folks; I know you're out there!)

Thanks to Kimber, Amy S., Lori M., Carrie M., Whitney, Mary Rose, Liz, Stephanie B., Lisa R., & JR, who think it'd make more sense to just hire better bakers, but that's why they're not "good" management material.

P.S. In case this post wasn't painful enough:

Exceptionally Bad Dad Jokes

There are a lot of "dad joke" books out there, but this one has awesome ratings AND the word "spiffing" on the cover, so it's a clear winner.
