Wanted: a full time frosting finisher, to prevent me from doing things like this.
Duties include:
- being sneaky. you must smuggle frosting away from my watchful eye.
- eating a lot. you must finish bowls upon bowls of frosting so I don’t bathe in it.
- being strong. you will need to wrestle the last bit of frosting from my white-knuckled claws.
- fighting me. for times when I won’t give the frosting up.
- being clever. the “throw-the-frosting-in-the-freezer” trick does not work with me.
- swift shopping. you may need to get me new elastic-waistband pants stat. lickety split, I say.
- listening to me whine. because I do that a lot.
Please apply within.
I’m Jessica and this is where I share my stuff. You will find a balance of healthy recipes, comfort food and indulgent desserts.
Regarding the “throw-the-frosting-in-the-freezer” trick: Did you know you can cover frozen frosting in chocolate?

I’m not tempting you. I’m just showing you how: http://districtchocoholic.blogspot.com/2010/08/covering-mistakes-with-chocolate.html
I hold Ben personally responsible for every cookie I eat. I mean, shouldn’t he have eaten them first or at least hid them from me?

Excellent idea. I’m going to start doing that with my husband.

I need a baked-goods-finisher I think… sending them to work with Dan helps, but that usually isn’t until the next day…

oh my gosh you just reminded me of the frosting I have waiting for me in my freezer!!

I would LOVE this job.
But I dont know if I’m qualified. I can definitely eat the frosting, but if you start crying, I’d let you have some. But at least we could share it together!

Hi Mrs. How Sweet!
I recently discovered your blog and love it! Thank you!
I was cruising around the site and found your 25 days of workouts you did last December and I wondered if you planned on doing something similar again this year? If not, I’ll just print the old ones and tote them to the gym!
Thanks again for fun and delicious additions to anyone’s day!

You know… I was just thinking about that today! I am not sure if I will do that, but if I do I will make sure to post it on here. :) Thanks for stoppin’ by!

hahahaha I hear ya! Everytime I bake I am thankful I have a husband you generally will devour things within 24 hours… or I would be 500 lbs!

oops I mean who will

Done! Although I don’t know how well I could fight right now. Does it count if I stick my belly up against ya and let baby B do it for me? He can kick total ass. Believe me, I know. ;)

Can I apply? No college degree yet, but I’m REALLY motivated…
I give all my baked goods to the BF after a few days. And frosting…well I’ve learned not to make it much, or I’m hunched over the toilet wanting to puke from all the butter.

I’m available November 21st Ha! Ha!

I’ll take that job! Sounds right up my alley!
Reminds me of a comic strip I collected while working in HR. It says “They say you should always do what you love” in the first square. In the last square it says “I wonder if Hershey’s is looking for a chocolate tester?”

haha! Too funny – I would love to be a professional frosting licker

I’ll help you. I can be your taste tester, too… Also, I’ll cook your bacon for you and then make you dinner. How does bacon crumble sound? Topped with frosting? And sprinkles?

i need someone to do this job for me! haha

i’d sign up, except i need someone to do the same thing for me!

Sounds like I’m the perfect fit. How do I apply?
Reply
Lmao! If you find one, could you send them my way, too? I could use one of those.
Reply
Sounds like an awesome job!!! Haha, I need one of those myself!
Reply
Haha! You are too funny! :-)

I would eat frosting for you! I don’t think I fit the job, though – I doubt I’m stronger than you. :/

I’d be more than willing to accept the challenge…as long as you come to my house and put the cream cheese under padlock and then bury the key in the beach sand down the street…i swear i could eat that stuff with a spoon (and often do)
