Guichun's new job

[lou]

Ok, Guichun has been working at our local A&P in the bakery dept.
going on 4 years now, minus the year off for the birth of Jenna .
Very hard job, most people want to work in that dept. because
they get the most hours but very few last too long.

They have one girl who is in charge of cake decorating, cakes for
the store and special orders. The last few months were busy and
Guichun was able to help her out, she just took to it. Manager was
very impressed and told her to take some classes, she did .

Starting in Jan. she's in charge of cake decorating, the other girl is
leaving, so more money and better hours for Guichun!

She's been making cakes for family and friends for a bit now but I
guess I'm posting because I'm just so damn proud of her,
everyone at work seen her work and over the last month she
made 3 cakes for my co-workers and made some nice money on
the side.

1st one, just a spring theme.

Next one for a birthday, They just wanted a gift box.

Co-worker renewing their wedding vows, again very small.
Ok, this last one blows my mind.
Co-worker is having a sweet 16 party for her daughter, wants
a baseball theme, checked with a lot of shops and for a regular
cake with some baseball decorations on top for 120 people
the cost would be about 500.00.
Asks me if my wife can help, she says no problem
I told her to be very careful because this was a big party
and there would be no time for my co-worker to run to the
bakery if it could not be done.

What does my wife do? she builds a ballpark!

Posting them next!

Not able to post all the photos in one post so
I'll do them next

Some extraordinary work there!

 

Thanks Randy! The small cakes were easy but when she took on

the ballpark I was scared. She asked her co-workers to help but

they told her no way, too hard.

I Just printed out a few photos of ballparks and she went to town.

I wish I could take photos like you, mine didn't do the cake justice.

Beautiful cakes.

What great lookin' cakes Lou. I'd be afraid to cut into one, they are so artistic it be like takin' a knife to that "Moaner Lisa" picture they have in France. Your wife is indeed talented.

Are you the couple came to Orlando CFL gathering in 2007? Guichun was pregnant back then.

 

I wish I lived nearby. I surely would order the cake from her each time.

[Stepbrow]

Wow! Those are awesome.

Beautiful, Lou! Her frosted hair looks great! How about adding some pics of Jenna too.

Your wife is a artist and a damn good one at that. I would think about the next level for her even though she is already there.
