a sweet afternoon

My willpower actually kicked in this afternoon as I went to the opening of Jen Roberts' new baking studio downstairs from our art studio. Sweet Element does the most gorgeous custom cakes and to die-for, elegant chocolates and delivers her edible works of art all over the country. This afternoon there were plenty to choose from.

I had only one cupcake(pistachio!! ) -- see the empty space on the bottom tier?
and 5 or 6 of her handmade chocolates, but they were all amazing.

I combined my visit to Jen's opening with a stop at my studio to pick up a brayer (where have mine all gone???) to pack for Bloomington, IN, where I am going on Tuesday to teach.
Stay tuned for the block challenge results in the next post.

Jen says she'll be happy to donate leftovers to our upstairs studio when she has them. Uh oh.
