Thoughts of the Floral Designer While Designing
My friend, Stacey Sunday, from Cake on Sunday originally last year had a similar blog post entitled 50 Thoughts Every Caker has While Caking dated April 9, 2014. She had modeled it after
Thoughts Every Jogger has While Running. Both are amazing posts you should check out if you want a chuckle.
I thought it was hilarious. She had mentioned to me that I should try it sometime. It has taken me a whole season, but here it is.
