Those are really cool.  Are those decorative studs edible?

Yup... a little crunch, but they are edible.

Yes, Canada's male population is 2.

The one you posted on FB of the close up of the blue bag on the cake really shows off excellent texture.  Her work is awesome, better by far than the "professional" pastry chefs at my hotel.

Sorry for the mega bump (and the dead links on jingle.dauthers baking).  However, time to talk up jingle.son now.  First, a shameless plug.

Did you know you can submit a Lego creation of your own to this website, and if they get 10,000 "supporters", they'll consider making it.  That's (I believe) how the Back To The Future sets got created.  Anyway, he submitted this for The Big Bang Theory set:



If you care to help out, go to https://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/56700, and click "Support".  Thanks for your consideration.

Now... on to the really good stuff.  jingle.son is going into High School next year, and has applied to a Regional Arts Program.  Huge portfolio required, and he spent the last 8 weeks working on it.  Here's some of the output.

He did this one at DisneyWorld last summer.


Mandatory work - view from a (car) window:


Water color painting


Self portrait


Some other random drawing

Co-captain in what if you don't mind me asking Hef? I marched in High School 5 years (I was pulled up to march in 8th grade) and was Drum Captain for 2 of those, definitely some of the best years of my life and they had a huge impact on how I am today.
She is in the pit.  Front percussion ensemble.  You know, the xylophones, marimbas, other percussion stuff.
A bit late but that's awesome! Have your daughter continued with percussion? I'm a big fan of DCI and have been for a long time. It's a well oiled machine that nurture tremendous amount of talent. Ya'll should be grateful for the High School Marching band tradition you have in the US. It's a great education tool. My father started a marching band in the 70s so I have been playing quite alot but marching band in the style that you have is basically non existence in Sweden, there are a handful marching band that's doing DCI type of stuff but they are easily counted unfortunately and they are also not connected to the public school in anyway or not like you have atleast. We have the professional military marching bands but even those are fading away because of gov. savings and stuff. Side topic but I just wanted to say that.  :)

Bumping.... so the jingle.kids are graduating elementary school next week.  jingle.daughter baked and decorated a cake to commemorate it, as well as got an order from one of her teachers to do cupcakes for his gf's birthday.  Like I said in the pic thread, too bad I can't post tastes!









And this she did for her Ortho for the day she got her braces off last month.  Last picture of her with braces.

She could make me a congrats on the new job cake and you could send it to me, that way I could back you up.  Also, you may want to invest in a shotgun, or get a face tattoo to care off poor suitors.

jingle.daughter is one talented young lady, that's for sure. I do hope that she can make a living at it (if that's what she wants to do) and that it never becomes "a job" for her.

She actually wants to be a teacher, despite Mrs Jingle and my (slight) encouragement to pursue this.  Oh well.

I tell you what it's a common misconception that teachers don't make a lot of money and what not. But, my wife is a teacher and I can tell you that your salary is directly related to how much effort you put in to continuing to add hours past your Masters. She by no means is 'scraping by' but at the same time she isn't pulling down six figures either. She makes a very respectable salary and her benifits are incredible. The retirement plan is great and in fact in general....at some point in her early to mid 50's it will actually make more sense for her to retire than to continue full time. I don't know the details as to why....but it'll be worth her retiring than continue on. Although, that's when they work part time and get paid a great hourly wage also.

Teaching ain't all bad.....but it does take a special person to be able to handle a lot of the BS they have to go through.

Mega bump.  jingle.daughter got her first job today, and promptly announced that she is now the only person in this jingle.household that is gainfully employed!

Another one of life's 'big' moments coming and going.  And in the next few months, they'll both have their G2 driver's license (Ontario has a graduated licensing program, so this is step 2 where they can drive - for the most part - on their own).

You're old.

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces
