SO last night I made cake pops for the first time and it was not difficult, but it was a longish process. I found a great tutorial at divascancook.com If you Google Divas and cake pops and they have a website and a YouTube video.
I bought white chocolate to did them and I was running out. It was 11pm. I was not going to the store. SO to use up this month of may I looked in my cupboard and found... white melting chocolate. SCORE!!!! Mixed it with the last of the white chocolate and boom. Done. If I can get a picture of the cake pops in their final element I will post. It was for a baby shower.
I have decided that Pinterest is great but sometimes it is easier to just serve cake. I like little details, don't get me wrong, but sometimes we can get caught up in the little things and miss out on the big picture.... and yesterday I was getting caught up in the little things and it affected the entire day and stressed me out.
And in the night after all the pops were done and I tried to wind down, playing Candy Crush and Words with Friends, I took a deep breath and realized that I needed to focus on the big picture. I decided to do this because I wanted to co-host a shower for my friend. I would figure out the small things and make it all work out. I made the list mentally of items to do the next day and finally, my brain started to wind down.
Sometimes getting caught up in the trees, we can't see the forest. And we cannot see the log in our own eye. I have been extremely guilty of that... and today is the day to do better. The world needs more optimists.
