Vegas Virtue and Vice

2nd day back! I am standing in the parking lot at work.
My hours have changed, and I I really like the 8:00-4:30 shift!!

I am prepping for after surgery.

I love making buttercream roses! Happy Birthday to me!

Happy Love day! I tried my hand at a plated dessert.

A beautiful day for tubing!

Day three’s adventure: walk along Sand Harbor.

Presentation of white chocolate lime stars. The background is painted using colored cocoa butter from Chef Rubber.

Happy 51st Birthday, to the Light of My Life, Titus. I had so much fun making this! The UFO is a Paris Brest! ( with the hole filled in) Paris Brest: a puffy pastry with hazelnut cream filling.

Chocolate experiment #78: the painting the mold did not turn out the way I thought. But they are delicious: peanut butter and chocolate!

Some of the post cards I created for PS I love you project that I totally was inspired (aka copycat) from Amanda.

The cake ai made for our 10 year anniversary!

I am too late for the contest, but I wan to share my artwork. . Rogue Dead Guy Ale asked us to use the beer can as a canvas, this is my idea! I wish I had read the rules earlier, I am two days late!!
Enjoy my art!

I am too late to enter the contest, but I want to share my artwork: , using their beer can as a canvas to create original artwork. I had fun with this contest, and wish I had read the rules two days ago— my post is two days late!! Enjoy the art, though!

Photo from my walk a few days ago. We have Unicorns in Reno!

When you can not go to the Philharmonic, the Philharmonic comes to you!! Reno Phil’s first concert of the season is on line. Socially distanced strings only. The first piece, “Out of the Silence” was a piano pice. Notice that Titus is playing along!

Half way up Castle Peak hike, before my phone died.

A picture court watch cake for Titus’s workmate. I held myself back and did not write something like “ 20 years for the company and all I got was this watch.”

Cascade of Fruit.

I made a dragon.

My first attempt at Sourdough. Note to self: if the recipe says to raise for 4 hours. It is not a good idea cut the time in half.

Piping practice for today. Whoever said “ Only boring people get bored” never went through quarantine.

Whole wheat bread with oats and walnuts. I like that the spiral grows up.

The tree outside our window is in full bloom! I will see Hyatt in May (hopefully).
Kind of a haiku. I think I am missing a syllable.

Reno at night. The view from the shot check and place of the first Trishananigans on the Reno H3 trail.
