baking and decorating lifeline

I just find it comforting that we can find sites like this that help us get ourselves out of a seemingly rotten situation once in awhile. I am a bread making teacher, immigrated here and without knowing anyone to help me go around the city, it is a complete physical and emotional blackout. From Asia, to America. I have been thinking of going home, and just when i am ready to pack up after only 4 months, i saw sites like this, maybe it is the angel i prayed for who whispered to me and told me, why not study cake decorating first, and then if you still feel like going home, then do it.

So here i am, a new lease of life in America. A bone thrown at me when i am supposed to give up. I am taking the Basic Cake Decorating at Michael's Craft store, will take 3 more classes after and then will start from there. Cakes we bake will be a part of my life. If it weren't for this i will book myself home.

Comment by Denise Piantkowski on September 11, 2010 at 9:14am: I know how you feel...although I haven't moved as drastically as you did from another country, I did move to another part of the state not knowing the area or anyone there. I got married and moved to his home, in which there are no neighbors to speak of. Starting out, I had no close friends to speak of...even at my workplace. I did switch jobs and meet a few new people; but when I started cake decorating, it seems that I am more accepted now - and I can't figure that one out!! When I joined Cakes We Bake, I found that the people here are so sincere and friendly, and have helped me out A LOT!! I don't have any place around me that has cake decorating classes, so I am on my own to learn....and this site really helps me!! Welcome to the U.S. Shirley, and know that you now have at least one more friend here!!

I feel the same way about so many nice people I've met since I started it. Since I moved 3 years ago, I've only made one friend in my neighborhood. I consider the ladies I talk to here to be my closest friends. Hope to get to know you better :)
