More About the Bling…

I Hate Bling

Izzy was kind enough to brighten my day by shooting this over to the ol’ inbox. It’s always nice to get something other than the empty promise of a 200 dollar Old Navy gift card or an eight hour boner. D and I actually went on a mission to find a Bedazzler this weekend, and hit one dead end after the next. I WILL make my “I Hate Bling” shirt one way or another, but I guess I am going to have to shop online to do it.

In other news, I am making the cake for the teacher appreciation luncheon next week. Cakes are the only blingy thing in my life, and I intend to keep it that way. I am trying to decide on the theme and can’t seem to come up with anything. Sunday night we were supposed to do a 5 K race, but it rained like all hell. As anyone knows the perfect response to being denied a race is to make (and eat) a practice cake. At-man was my big helper and it did keep us out of trouble, but the fondant tasted like ass so it’s back to the drawing board. Everyone agreed on “something pretty” so I can always throw on a bunch of flowers and call it a day if nothing better comes up.

  1. You make those pretty cakes? I’m impressed! I love baking but I wouldn’t say I was talented in the area. At all. lol

    Did you ever see that commment that I received when I linked to your Bling Hate post? Mel from Mama Mama! has a Tshirt company of some kind and can make those rhinestone-y blingy shirts. She said she could do the “I Hate Bling” with just a six shirt minimum order. You probably don’t need that many but just thought I’d pass it along.

    PS: Is the Bedazzler still in existence?

  2. Hmmmm. Ass-flavored. That’s the one you make for the teacher you DON’T appreciate . . .

  3. I’ve had a few teachers I would love to send an ass flavored caked to, but they were mostly in high school. The teachers at our preschool definitley deserve a non-ass flavored cake. I think I am going to look into an order of the shirts. I’ll keep you posted.

  4. WARNING: There may be bling hiding in your body lotion. If you don’t believe me, just listen to my tale…. I was at a child’s party this weekend, sitting in the lovely afternoon sun, when I looked down to see my legs all a-glitter! Sparkling I mean to tell you! I was mortified. Got home and checked to see if I had mistakingly bought a product with the word “glow” — nope, is was plain ole’ Olay Quench. Watch yourselves ladies.
