A Baker's Bakery

Whitney had a project in her Young Entrepreneurs of Kansas class. It was very in depth. Business plan for a business. Verbal presentation. She did "A Baker's Bakery" and made cupcakes. The business plan was the primary part of the grade. The cupcakes at her verbal presentation were the icing on the cake (heeeheeeheee).

She said after school that day she was the most amazing person ever cause she had 4 dozen cupcakes to share.

Unfortunately? she was one of the top two at Heights and has to make the same presentation at Koch Industries on Wednesday. Let me explain a few things. Koch Industries is the sponsor of Young Entreprenuers. The "unfortunate" part is that while Whitney likes the idea of the cash prize, she didn't want to have to do her presentation again. But we went and got all the stuff to make beautiful tasty cupcakes and cake balls, a nice way to present them; like last time, she will decorate her box and make it look good, and for this presentation we got her an adorable pink apron. Because the box is decorated pink, the cupcakes are pink, the cake balls have pink sprinkles.

I'm very proud of her. I have to laugh at the child who doesn't want to win but just can't help herself.

No nerves giving the presentation, no fear that they won't like her cake. She's invincible. UNTIL...

My mom called, she has been sick a few times in the last couple months and has a doctor's appointment. She says she's fine, I believe her, my mom's tough, I'm tough, Whitney's tough.

But Whitney showed a chink in that 16 year old armor. Like to broke my heart. She is definitely grandma's girl.
