Antique Ombre Chocolate Buttercream Cake
I feel pretty lucky to work with some lovely ladies. There are seven young women on my team and we are all very close. Literally. Like within 3 feet of each others faces. Besides just sitting close, we are friends too. We come in on Monday and chat about our weekends, eat lunch together at […]
