I did a guest spot on a local tv show yesterday, here's the video if anyone's intersted. I was supposd to be demo'ing frozen buttercream transfer, but of course I talked too much and ran out of time, hahaha! They did ask me to come back another time, so I didn't stink it up too badly. http://acaketorememberva.blogspot.com/2011/10/virginia-this-morning-appearance.html

Oh, I'd never want to do that! It's one thing to go to the studio and do a segment, but if they came to my house with cameras I'd have to clean up first, hahaha!

Hey, any opportunity to give people a lecture! I also made sure to get in an insult of canned icing.

I used to do costumes for the theater in college and afterward, and that's a pretty common costuming nickname. When I first joined on here I didn't post any business information because I thought that I might want to discuss specific client situations and I wanted to be anonymous. After a while I decided that I wasn't going to gossip about clients anyway, so I posted my business info and listings to my blog on here. It was basically just to have a nickname that wouldn't be traceable back to my website so that clients couldn't find me and beat me up!

I think you did a fantastic job even more so since it was a first for you.

And, even though you ran out of time I think you explained it really well that a newbie would have no problems trying it out!

Way to go!
