A New Direction

My life is about to go in a new direction! After 3+ years of working at an injection molding company in Grand Rapids, I have been blessed with a new opportunity! I put in my two week notice today and on March 4th, 2013, I will begin working at Nestle Gerber in Fremont!

My new position is entry level and a great place to start out- offering the chance to move up. I am going to be an Associate Food Technician! I will have various job responsibilities like cooking up recipes, running tests, and working in the pilot plant.

I am super excited and can't wait for this new direction!

Off to a Great Start!

This semester is off to a great start. We are in the 5th week of classes (out of 16) and I am doing well in my classes. I have had two exams in my accounting class. The first one I got a 97% on- the class average was 66%. After I took it I actually came home and cried because I felt that I did horribly. I was so confused, but I must have understood the concepts. I took my second exam last night and I thought I did pretty well on it. The grades were posted tonight and I got a 98% and the class average was a 89%. So overall, I have a 97% in accounting, a 98% in Computer Applications in Business,and a 98% in Ethics.

One more class this week and then it's the weekend! I have some homework & reading to do. I also get to make 2 cakes this weekend for a birthday! Be watching for pictures of that to be posted in the near future!

American Girl Doll Cake

This was such a fun cake to do!!! Joel's boss asked me to make a cake for his daughter's birthday party. The theme was American Girl Doll. Joel was able to bring a box home so I could see it and make a cake based on it. The wife wanted a little more lavender than pink. I think it turned out great and I know they  loved it!
