Back, when I was still in Wales, DmentD sent me the link to a blog he thought I might be interested in, he’d found it browsing about the web and after passing it onto me he promptly forgot about it *grins* The blog belonged to a girl who was in the final stages of a […]
Continue Reading...Face Lift
As you can probably tell, EatBake is experiencing a makeover. This is in order for us to be able to integrate the gallery properly as part of the page. This isn’t the finished product, there will be lots of changes made until it’s settled in a way I like it and that works how it […]

Simply a gallery for so long Curious Confections has finally had a face lift. It’s our semi-professional site for anyone who wants to see our work, a place to send prospective customers. So if you happen to know anyone who may be interested (preferably in the Austin area) please send them our way. Or just […]
Continue Reading...Many Exams
Right now it feels like as soon as I finish one we’re onto another… which is fairly close to how it’s happening! The Filo exam on Friday went well, I was pleased with how I did. Everything worked out nicely, and candied pecans are in fact more delicious than you would anticipate! Then we had […]
Continue Reading...Busy Week
A week of exams this week, and will continue to be so for all the weeks left of this unit. Though amazingly we’re two weeks down already, it’s going quick. This week started with our chocolate plate up. I had grand plans, and as so often happens when you do, they failed! I was going […]

Firstly, at New Years was a friend’s birthday that Michael and I made the cake for. Maxfield Parrish was a favourite artist of the recipient with The Latern Bearers being her favourite piece. So keeping this in mind we made an orange chiffon cake and after covering it in buttercream we decorated it with the […]

The holidays are over, and I was back to school yesterday.. This is the unit I was considerably nervous about. It’s the first of the advanced classes, no more being told how to make something (though she will demo stuff we haven’t seen before), most of what we make we should at least know the […]

May 2009 bring you health, wealth and happiness. We saw in the New Years at a friend’s party, it was Masquerade so a few days before we decided on a costume. This was mostly based around the fact that DmentD really wanted to make himself a fez. So we decided to go 1950’s kitsch! We […]
Continue Reading...Gun Range
Earlier this week DmentD took me to the gun range. This might seem odd and bizarre to anyone over there in the UK, you’re all wondering now whether I’m living with a gun-toting maniac *grins* The answer’s no I’m not. This was infact the first time I had seen any of the guns though I […]
Continue Reading...Knitting!
A while back I decided to re-teach myself knitting and crochet (though so far I’ve only done the knitting). Finding a project I wanted to do and some nice wool I set to making a hat… … it failed! I followed the pattern religiously, and there I think was my problem.. It claimed to be […]
