I have a new look! Thanks to Christy of Ruby & Roja – I now have a pretty storefront to lure people in. Little do they know that things aren’t always so pretty on the inside… Oh well – at least I’m good for a piece of cake.
As much as Christy claims that I was not in fact a nightmare client, I have to commend her for her patience and diplomacy. Who knew that there was so much riding on the correct shade of yellow? And there were a few close calls with topiary height (we almost ended up with something resembling lollipops). Not to mention the part when I brought in my mother to consult. Christy has just experienced My Big Fat Piece of Cake Wedding.
Seriously though – I’m making myself sound far more demanding and needy than I actually was…kind of. I just wanted to thank the people that made this possible (and give them a nice plug – as if they need it since they already have a waiting list). So I’d like to holla (that’s right – I said “holla” – “shout outs” are so five minutes ago…) to Christy and the rest of the design geniuses at Ruby & Roja! Thanks for making me pretty (at least on the outside).

I LOVE the new and improved you…it turned out great.
I love it too…the graphics are perfect! Just like your name, they make me want to run out and buy a big cake!
v. v. cute! love it!
Thanks for the holla, Kate! I’m so glad you love your new look. Contrary to what you might think, I had a wonderful time working with you (and your mother ;).
Enjoy your new dig, and let me know if you ever need anything else!
Perfect! It looks great!
This is just too darn cute. I love it. I really must have a pro do mine someday.
Very cute!
Lovely! What a treat!
I love it! It reminds me of a Richard Scarry book. Now I too want cake.
I love the new look too! FYI…the post before totally made me feel bad since I am supposed to be cleaning right now and not on the net!
Christy of Ruby & Roja is too close to my name for comfort.
J’adore La Patisserie! As the Mom whose advice probably caused a big groan (I hate it when my clients need to bring in their moms for advice) I’d like to give huge kudos to Christy. Bravo!!!
Kate and others – Please check out the article about Nei Nei’s story and the amazing blogger response in the NYTimes Sunday paper. The article is called What Was Virtual Becomes Personal.

Lovely blog. Thanks for the comment today! You cracked me up. It’s so good to know that someone else writes those (completely unnecessary) speeches too. I love it! Looking forward to getting to know you better!
