Where have I been?!

Goodness! My last post was last month!!

I have been really tired and am still very tired, must go to sleep early after this post since I haven't posted anything for a long time.

I actually had so much to complain about during the last two weeks but I really couldn't find time to type a word here. The week of 5th October marked the commencement of my crazy schedule - at the full time job, most of us had to work 10am to 10pm for the new product launch. And there was this day when I had tried to "escape" from the duty and be at the charity fair. Before that was the tempting Ferrari California order, which by the way, gotten very bad review, passing points only and that's because the customer was kind enough. Bad review because the cake wasn't nice to start with, sounded so not edible, sob. And the car wasn't at all looking like a Ferrari. Okay, as MFG said, room for improvement, don't think too much. I will make another car with styrofoam later. Just to satisfied the picture gallary.

So, I had been working on the Ferrari delivery since Sunday and it was until 2am, 3am, and the extreme one was until 5.30am! I actually only went into work at 10am that day. Continued with preparation for charity fair and luckily I had my cousins to help, otherwise I think I wouldn't be able to make it at all!

It was also very comforting to have MFG at site as well, although he's managing his own station. Oh, LGM was there and got introduced to MFG (literally because I introduced MFG as "MFG" to LGM haha...). LGM bought a few cupcakes and she also bought some for/ on behalf of LP, thanks for the support dears. My yoga instructor booked some carrot cupcakes, but couldn't make it, so she collected the next day. MFG bought a few as support too. The location of the stall wasn't that ideal, so cousin bro and me went around to sell to the tables where the dinners were. It was quite successful until the parade started. Too crowded to be selling things then.

After that was a full day at work, on a Sunday, so no rest day for me last week. No rest after that either as there was another order that I had to start preparing soon after that. I just delivered that 3 boxes today, I hope the response is good and won't get bad review again.

I thought I will take a break and one order should be enough already for this week. But fortunately, I am still going to meet my "KPI" - I've just confirmed another order for this Sunday. Next Friday is booked already and I foresee a few more orders coming in.

Next week I will look into the TeaRoom location matters. Meanwhile, website development ready to commence. :)

Had lunch with LGM today at Bon Bon, wah, very good business, I'm sure TeaRoom can do as good! Thanks for suggesting the lunch place LGM, we must do lunch more.

Now eye lids cannot hold up any longer... nite nite.
