The Wedding Expo Winner Post
Hey Everyone!
I might have mentioned last week that I am attending a wedding planner training on Sundays for 2 months and though I have to get up at the crack of dawn 6:20 am *yawns* the course is really interesting! So to get some work contacts and do some preparatory research for my final thesis today I am attending a wedding expo and hopefully will come home with a lot of cards and new contacts. 😉
Besides that my weekend was productive baking-wise: I did a double treat of orange meringue pie and folded cinnamon cake. Although it turned out beautiful we weren’t blown away by the orange pie as it wasn’t that special sweet and sour, so we’ll stick with lemon and lime pie in the future, but the folded cinnamon cake became an instant hit with the family! So if you want something …
