I made a noise...

when I opened the envelope such that Arnold thought that I was hurt or that some very large bug had crawled out of the envelope. It was just part of my Happy Dance. A four letter word never looked so good. Well, "Depp" is a four letter word. But this comes in a close second.


In other news, I tried to make an Abu cake (pictured below). I used Rice Krispy Treats to mold him and then covered him in fondant. I didn't have time to make the magic carpet, the fondant wouldn't behave properly and I burnt part of the cake. Oh and he fell apart on the way to Hope's (where we would be watching Aladdin). By the time we got there it was nothing but a heap of Rice Krispy Treat on top of a purple cake.If I hadn't gotten the notification that I passed the FE on the same day, I might have been pissed.

Hooray for passing!
You did really well. I mean, it was only your first go at it.
I'd say I'm proud of you, but I didn't raise ya. I had no part in your smarts.

Rock on!

Ha! I'm proud of Beth *anyway*. :-P But I'm not at all surprised.

Hey, will you do me a favor and post your recipe for the marshmallow fondant? I'd like to give it a try sometime. (I didn't like the taste of "real" fondant either.)

Thanks!

Amy

When my "comment" about marshmallow fondant got to its third paragraph, I decided it needed to be a real post.

... so does this mean that you're a 'fundamental engineer' now? And if they let you drive the fundamental train, can I sit up front?

Congrats on passing your F****ing Engineering Exam! As for the fondant, very tasty. You might want to mention not to get too much water in it while working with it, or your pig could have a saggy ass! I enjoyed spending time with you and Arnold this past weekend. Have a safe trip back
