My friend Heather is one of the great corrupting influences in my life. She introduced me to Cake Wrecks, and now every few days I click over and catch up on the madness of professionally decorated cakes gone horribly, hilariously wrong. No matter how wiped out, down, or stressed I am, Jen can usually get at least one serious belly laugh out of me.
And just today in my inbox I had another email from Heather–this one alerting me to Epicute, a “cute food blog.” Most of the food is approximately 80% sugar, but I think that’s all to the good. First of all, food made from sugar can reach dizzying heights of beauty. (Remember Hansel and Gretel?) Second, perhaps if I look at enough blogs like this it will satisfy my nearly insatiable craving for sweets. You know, like when I worked at McDonald’s and they’d put me in front of the fry vat. I could go to work hungry, and 8 hours later go home satiated (without having eaten anything).
That’s my hope anyway.
Mwa ha ha ha! My work here is done.
I saw the cake wrecks blog once before but never dwelved deeper into it. Now it’s past midnight and I’m giggling away, supposed to be going to bed, but drawn in by the horror of it all.
