Well
After 30 + years working....like me... Sandra, you can.... or of course, a deceased relative bequeaths you an inheritance... or you win a lottery..... hee hee :o)
Yup..... so true Sandra. I dabbled in decorating, but with work & years & years of migraines, never had the energy, health or time. Even tho it is just a passionate hobby, I never felt as inspired or as motivated to create until I joined here. I began to learn from all of you, and other cakers on CWB. Learned also that valued friendships can spring up in the most unexpected places and don't always happen in your own backyard. This would never would have happened earlier. Wasn't the time or place. Believe God gives us "seasons" in our life. For me... I believe it is a season to finally relax a little, enjoy, learn, be, give, create, read, pray, stay up late, sleep in, take long walks, develop deeper relationships with God, family & friends....embrace the gift of retirement and whatever lies ahead. :o)
Katy, do not sell yourself so short. Your cakes have progressed into quite the masterpieces! Just because you started late in the game, doesn't mean you don't have the talent. Of the two most upcoming 'late start' artists that I have been keeping a close eye on, it is you and Goreti and you both have really been popping out some magnificent cakes as of late. They are awesome!
Bless Martin, thanks. It's fun, which is why I do it and have the time to do so now. I like to be busy (which drives Mick nuts sometimes) and I get such inspiration from you guys on this site. xx
You are both clearly very naturally gifted in the artistic field, which I envy you. My Mum was like that - she went to Harrow Art School instead of normal school and had a job with Kodak in the days of black and white film only, whereby she was employed to 'paint' black and white photos into colour. She was incredibly gifted. Sadly I don't inherit that flair - I have the ideas, but am short on the ability to reproduce what I imagine. I wish I had known 30 years ago how much I would love the caking in later life and would have taken a different course in life. Too late now, lol!
