Here’s a video tutorial from I Am Baker on how to make a patriotic rose cake. For some reason I have been very interested in cake decorating lately and this method couldn’t be more easy or beautifully done. I plan on making some rose cupcakes as celebratory treats for some coworkers at the Apple store. Hopefully they turn out this well!
Education
Very rarely do you meet an individual with the vehemence to pursue knowledge for its intrinsic value. The only institution that posits as its central thesis a commitment to this value is the same institution that squanders it. This is a mistake. Our brightest individuals are made to be dim, lampshade to a light. The personal conflict that results from such constraints is too great to express. Understand the challenge is not one of value but one of identity, the only and most fragile source of genuine fulfillment. You are challenging identity. There can be no greater crime than this; asking one to deny their very self to attain the primary thing that self values. The choice that follows sacrifices identity for values, values for identity, or both. This is the state of education.
