Goodbye first performance of new glee club, you guys are rockin' it.
Goodbye 350 degree oven working all day to produce bake sale items.
Goodbye color blue that I'm banning from the rainbow so my cake disaster is more accurate.
Goodbye to an 80-something year old couple I met in line at the grocery store that gave me an opportunity to do something good.

Proud of the Cake in a Jar, Cranberry-Lemon cookies, and Zucchini bread.

Hello Fall Family Fair.
Hello hayrides, football, bonfire, and picnic fare.
Hello hanging out with new school friends.

Total Disaster

Blue failed to leave the cake pan.

My lesson for this week is that I have to remain aware of my talents and gifts to the world. I can't be or do something I was not meant to do because it turns out disastrous. Stick with honing and growing the areas where I am gifted - it's better for the world and for my sanity. Ace of Cakes I am not. In the future, I will finally say "no" to cake baking as it is clearly not my calling.
