Food Network?!?!?!

September 3rd, 2009

OK, I know it’s been a while since we have posted anything….but what a way to come back! So, yesterday I saw a posting on Cupcakes Take The Cake about an opportunity for a new Food Network series focusing on “extreme cupcakes”. I thought what the heck and sent in a brief description of Two Parts Sugar and what we do. I’ll be honest, after I sent it in I was checking my e-mail about every 2 min…expecting a rejection letter. Well, today at about 5:00 just as I was finishing up dinner with the girls (we had an early dinner cause my 3 year old had swimming lessons) when I got “the call”.

Peter (who was quite funny) from The Food Network called and introduce himself. I didn’t really register when he introduced himself (I was still in mother-mode focusing on my girls) until he said he received my submission (mother-mode off!)….it then hit me and I began to pace (I get the pacing from my mom). He explained a little about the show and asked me to come in for an interview/audition! He explained what they were looking for and what I would be required to bring. OMG! 

So, I accepted and we said our goodbyes. Then I hung up, put my phone down and kinda let out a little squeal of excitement….although it was really a scream that ended up scaring my girls! After consoling my little ones, I got on the phone and called my entire family. Ok, I know it’s not official…yet, but, I am so thrilled to have the privilege of even being considered. I must admit, like the LA Cupcake Challenge I feel a bit out of my “league,” but I will go and give it my all.

Check back with us to see what we create for the interview and we will keep you posted! WISH US LUCK!!!!!
