Decorating By CountryCakery4 Updated 9 Oct 2009 , 4:43am by daisy1224
...when you leave your e-mail open all day so you can refresh for CC notifications and as soon as you wake up you check your e-mail and go on CC and that's also the last thing you do before you go to bed and you have sore red eyes from looking at the comp screen all day....i'm gonna need glasses soon lol
.....when you just think of this name for a perfume while you are typing this post:
'Obession' a perfume by cake central
When i look at all the stuff i have bought because *someone* said it was great/must have/sure thing/better than the previous thingy/have you seen and bought/look at this/just released/coming to an on line shop in 2 weeks/...etc etc etc.
Good grief - i could have funded a return trip to the USA and Canada and met you all in person by now.......but then i wouldn't have so many toys - and a 4th bedroom that is now converted into one giant walkin cake cupboard
Bluehue.

Me too, about the cake toys, I am also about to turn, my fifth bedroom into a cake closet.
When your husband asks you if you're on "That cake porn sight?"
That's funny. I used to get annoyed with my boyfriend for looking at "car porn" instead of interacting with me. Now I'm annoyed because he's using the computer and I can't look at "cake porn"
LOL - you know all I think about is getting on Cake Central. My husband is like - welcome home. Glad you're back. And I'm running to the computer. LOL.
..when you consider having your husband committed because he asked again, "How can you look at cakes all the time? They're just cakes." (Although even he was impressed with the Jack Daniels bottle/poker cake. I'm sorry I don't recall who made it, but it was terrific, and so realistic. If you didn't see it, it's worth the search.)
and another..................
when you (a hobby baker) fabricate occasions to bake a cake...full moon...dog got a haircut...remodeling is finished...school started...TV was repaired.....
.....When your kids know this is the only sight you frequent. So when they get finished with their computer time, intead of turning off the computer they yell "mom I put it on cc for you!"
...when no matter what you have left to do on a cake (i.e. cover it in fondant, fully decorate it, create a 3-D replica of the Eiffel Tower) and it's 10pm and your husband is going to bed and he asks you how much longer you're going to be, it's ALWAYS, "Oh, this shouldn't take me long. I'll be in bed by 12. Promise!" Then, you go crawling to your bed at 4 or 5am only to wake up two hours later to finish the thing that wouldn't "take me long." It never fails.
OR
...when you have various amounts of powdered sugar, cake batter, chocolate, on your laptop from the CC references you make while you're trying something new...
.... the first thing you do in the morning is turn on the computer, then go make coffee and the last thing you do at night is check just one last time to see if there is anything new added in the forums. Sometimes that last check takes an hour!
Oh my gosh this is so me.
We...are...hilarious!!!!!
I don't remember ever laughing so much at just one thread. Probably b/c I can identify with most of it!

Me too...minus the coffee...it's always really cold Coke for me.
I'm addicted because I sneak my laptop under the cover so that I can "see" the new cakes posted in the middle of the night
...when you are late for a meeting because you are reading this thread thinking, yup, been there, done that!

You know your a CC addict when you ask another family member to check the email and they reply, "No there's nothing-ONLY CC stuff." And they actually say "CC"!
... when the school calls to ask you if you are going to pick up your children and you are only just then getting in the car because you just had to post that one last post before leaving and time evaporated yet again.
... when your hubby wil turn on any cake show on the bedroom TV to lure you off of CC and at least into bed. He really gets a hoot out of this one because it takes all of three seconds-I have cake show radar. LOL

These both made me laugh so hard!
Hey, I've got one...when you are anywhere else and see "DH" you think of Duncan Hines first.
....when you have to buy the next size up in your clothes because you keep making cake balls and cakes and cakes and cakes (get the picture) and of course you have to taste to make sure your newest concoction tastes good.
Of course, this is what I refer to as "quality control"!
i may, in fact, need a twelve-step program. my family doesn't know about c.c.
my addiction started in august and blossomed so quickly that i don't know how to explain it at this point.
help!
You know you're an addict when you start just about every sentence with "On cakecentral.com......"
LOL! That's me!
...when you keep multiple websites and programs open on your computer, so you can minimize cc (and maximize something else) when someone walks by or asks what you're working on.

Guilty also! Shhhhh!!!!!
i'm guilty at the moment too. i had two cc pages up and was cruising nicholas lodge's cake toys. someone walked in and i minimized all of them.
the silly thing is that i am the boss and own the company. jeez!
when you make up reasons to bake a cake so you can use new ideas or toys you found out about off of CC
my boyfriend caught me looking at cakes instead of doing my homework...on a Friday, on date night, and we were late...oops
hubby's used to me looking at the daily most viewed pics lol.. i look those first then go on to the most recent uploaded and work back lol.. AND i leave comments on most of them ( i sometimes miss a few sorry) now Thats an addict lol
