it’s raining and we live in long island city
Today started out with EPIC amounts of rain….buckets and buckets, I thought my skylight was going to give way…but it didn’t. Today has been productive and I am getting ready to head out the door to start my outside day. I have to go and see a client and head off to my other job for a few hours to clean up stuff that I should have done yesterday. I am taking a hiatus from the way I normally approach life and specifically my schedule. I have made a promise that I will go into the office at least 4 days a week, so that I can get all my stuff done. I am not a fan of going into the office, not because it’s not a nice office-it’s a great, no pressure, positive space, I just hate offices. I applaud people who can go to the office everyday and not gouge their eyes out. I am a more out in the community kind of person, and I do that really well. But the good has to come with the bad, or the upside has to come with a downside, and that is the office. I don’t even really have to spend much time there each day 5 hours tops. But I have to go there…..
I made a pie this morning during the rain, for my uncle….it turned out really well until I moved it and the pie crust cracked…oh well, presentation 1 me 0. I am trying out some new recipes over the next couple of days for a party that I am going to…pink lemonade cupcakes–oh yes I went there…. if they work, I will sugar some lemons and put them on top…..oh yes I did! I will of course make what I now refer to as my one trick pony cupcakes–devils food and peanut butter blah blah, they are always my back up plan….I will also master my piping bag, I realized after looking at a bunch of pictures that I have been doing it all wrong and that’s why my icing never worked…so I feel a bit better about that….
The sun is out now, and I think I have to get out and go to the office–drats!
