cakes

Two recent cakes I've done at work.
This unicorn cake is one I've done twice before. It was ordered by an ex employee who I had the pleasure of firing. She called the next day after she picked this up to tell me how amazing the cake was

The next one, the customer asked if I could do a horse, which I said I could not. Then he asked if I could do a horseshoe. That I figured I could handle. After I got home I thought I would see if I could either make a template or something I could actually lay on the cake. I went to clipart-library.com and found a horseshoe image.

I uploaded this image to Cricut's Design Space then cut it 4 times from cardstock and twice from a metallic vinyl. I used the 4 layers of cardstock to make it a bit more sturdy and the vinyl so that it would hold up better laying against the icing on the cake.

The customer seemed pleased with the cake.


Here's a closer look at the horseshoe.


In other news, we had another employee meeting yesterday. The sale of the building fell through. We still don't have a bright future but it did buy us a little more time.

Mellow yellow

I couldn't resist taking pictures of the yellow blooming in my yard
Forsythia




And daffodils.

Contradiction.

 After the conversation I had with Bing's co-pilot where it recalled information from a past conversation, I decided to test it.

This was our conversation.


What do you know about me?

Copilot

I don’t have access to personal data about individuals unless it has been shared with me in the course of our conversation. My design is privacy-focused, and I’m here to provide information and assistance based on the topics we discuss. How can I assist you today?

You
I want to know what you know about me from our past conversations

Copilot

I’m sorry, but I don’t retain personal conversation histories or details about individuals. Each session with me is designed to be independent to ensure privacy and confidentiality. If there’s something specific from a past conversation that you’d like to continue discussing or need help with again, feel free to let me know, and I’ll do my best to assist you!

You
Yesterday I asked a question and part of your answer mentioned a specific like that I have that was not mentioned in the original question. When I asked if you remembered past conversations your reply was yes.Your answers here today contradict that.

Copilot

I apologize for any confusion. I’m designed to not retain or recall personal data from conversations to ensure user privacy. Thank you for understanding.






This is when it told me it might be time to move on to a new topic. I guess it didn't care to talk to me about why it told me one thing that day and something different the day before. Maybe Co-pilot is just like both my husbands after all.
