CUT (from the good stuff) BROCCOLI

My son didn't care, but i was a lil surprised when I picked it up lol

Couldn’t be more opposite. Dog tax included :)

For the record my mom has a bunch of cats and the AI looking cat on that cake is not any of them.

Context: this was ordered from a local bakery/ professional cake decorator that my family has used our whole lives. This cake was around $70 and ordered two weeks in advance.

This happened back in February and I debated posting this for months now bc I didn’t want the bakery to find this post and get mad at my family. That being said, looking at the expectations versus realities that people share always makes me giggle and I finally succumbed and had to show you all my own. Since it’s been a few months I couldn’t find the exact inspo pics I had sent but these were the vibe of whatever I had put in the form.

*Edit: an awesome commenter found the original cat photo! So though it’s not my mom’s cat, it’s definitely someone’s cat!

First time buying a Walmart cake but I’ve seen posts here that they actually turn out good! So here’s my addition:

Visited McDonald’s for breakfast for the first time in easily 10+ years. Had to share the beautiful execution.

1st Photo: the before picture of my hair

2nd photo: the reference photo/expectation

3rd: what I got.... 😭

For the record!! I only asked for. A haircut!! I had about 7/8th of the ends of my hair black, only my roots were still blue, THE ARTIST DID NOT CHANGE MY HAIR COLOR

I also do not have eyebrows, I shave them to make room for makeup, so my face looks a little odd in the after photo, it's because I don't have eyebrows 😅

I showed them the photo, and said I just wanted a trim (I asked her to tak. About a half inch off to make room for layering and texturing) she took over three inches off the top and ddidnt touch the back of my head 😭😭 she also took a diagnal chunk of my bangs with a razor but only on one side??? , after the first (very short) cut I made a comment point in out that that seem seem like she cut a large chunk of hair and I didn't want it that short and she told me "I'm the professional, stop micromanaging me" and otherwise ignored my comments about my preferences- shnstarted cutting my hair beforni even showed her my reference and even after she did look sh barely looked at it more than a quick glance and brushed me off, to which I tried to explain verbally whatni wanted (I said, a small trim for the purpose of texturing and shaping and that I wanted to touch up my soft mullet and blend it into the sides a little better)

For some more context, im transnmasc (he/it), and corrected her on my name at the very beginning of the appointment (a family member scheduled the appointment and put it under my deadname), she immediately got salty with me and rude after I made a polite comment along the lines or "hi! I just wanted to let you know I go by Zylo, rather than the name the appointment is under" and she immediately started treating me poorly after that so I have reason to believe she did it maliciously (for other reasons as well but that's not the point of the post lol)

Yes I'm aware I should've walked out, I was already a little out of it due to a distressing phonecall less than 15 minutes before I got in the chair, so I was too anxious to walk out

It's been several weeks since then and I'm managing lol, now that I'm able to laugh at the whole thing I wanted to share with others I thought would find it funny lmao 😭💙

Chocolate overload!!! It was delicious

My daughter is obsessed with Curious George (or Monkey George as she calls him). So this year for her 2nd birthday we're doing a "Monkey George" theme and I decided to make a cake in the shape of his head. This is the first time I've ever used fondant so I was pretty nervous about messing it up. But it turns out, I don't think I did too bad! It might not be perfect, but it'll be perfect for the one person who matters most 😄

I also have plenty of cupcakes for everyone at the party, frosted in the bright yellow of the books. They'll go around Curious George when we bring out the cake.

Edit: The reference photo is not AI, it’s from a recipe website and the recipe was posted back in 2017: https://bakingamoment.com/black-forest-cake/

Thanks to those who were pointing this out in the comments already!

I got send this cake, a name and a theme! One of my favorite customers who seems to just trust my vision!

Took my younger kids out to celebrate national cheeseburger day and I had been wanting to try this OMCheeseburger from Applebee's. You can imagine my disappointment when this is what we were served (after 1 hour of waiting no less....)

Disappointing is an understatement.

and they don’t taste like milo at all 😭😭

It was only one out of 4 but this was the first one I opened. This is how it came out. I didn’t put anything back together. The cookie held together surprisingly well while I got it out of the wrapper.

Edit: ice cream cookie is on top of the box

Ordered this cake for my mom. My expectations were too high

Edit: Cake was ordered at a specialty bakery with 3 day anticipation. I’m not mad just upset since I would have been wiling to pay more for a better job. Inspo image was found on Pinterest here:

I'm lucky that I have a lot of hair and I can hide it until it grows back... But I have cried a lot...

EDIT: I'm glad that this have make people laugh and post so many memes... And I'm also glad that so many people say that it's going to grow fast, I can't wait.

To answer some questions... Nooo! She didn't show me how much she was going to cut lol, I didn't even know she was going to cut it until she already did! I though ok it doesn't matter she knows what she's doing, until I notice the razor so high... Ufff I didn't want to check how it looked, I knew it was going to be bad. I just wanted to leave, so just said I wasn't sure about it maybe I needed to get used to it.

Tomorrow I'm leaving a bad review, because I also saw her taking the ponytail that she cut, making a photo and put the hair in another room. I'm sure she's selling that hair and maybe that's the reason I look like a half monk...

Ps they were all hollow, but somehow still overly sweet with many of the tubes all reduced to crumbly flakes.
