Can we just tell you how excited we are about autumn? Don't get us wrong, we love the summer, and the beach, and the fireworks, and half-melted popsicles. Mmmmm, popsicles. But we love autumn. The flannel shirts, apple picking and cider drinking (warm apple cider is amazing!), pumpkin carving, carol singing...wait, not that last one! The weather is still nice, there's no snow on the ground, and the crunch of leaves underfoot reminds you just how beautiful everything looks outside.
Yes, autumn is our favorite.
And so far, we've had such a busy autumn schedule. We had two orders last weekend for two separate weddings, another fantastic order for next week (look for pictures soon!), and we are talking to 3 brides about possibly baking for their big days. Brides, you are so on top of things right now! Way to go!! :)
On Tuesday we had a lot of fun helping the city break a World Record...a cookie-themed world record. Reason #2,689 why we love this city!
Giant Eagle hosted the cookie dunking event (the first time in a long time we haven't hated the company), and it was so incredibly random it was wonderful. Two cookies, a napkin, a cup of milk...and a world record shattered. The previous record for number of people simultaneously dunking Oreos together stood at 1,700 (why this record already existed is still a complete mystery to us), but Pittsburgh managed to set the new record at 2,152. Something new and fun to add to the resume, right under ninja.
We're also already gearing up for our annual Christmas Cupcake Sale in December too. We hate thinking about Christmas too far ahead...but sometimes early prep is good. We won't say too much more in this post, but it's something to keep in the back of your mind when you're stuck figuring out gifts for those barely-know co-workers.
Until then, enjoy the weather, Pittsburgh! Make sure you stomp on a few extra-crinkly leaves!!
