My husband and I love the NYC bar and lounge called 3 of Cups. It's located in the heart of Manhattan and is a great place to catch up with friends. They have several couches which are super comfortable, and also a great DJ who spins all types of music - the beer coasters list the up-coming music nights. Though if you prefer a certain genre they do offer themed nights such as "Metal Monday". While it can be kind of hard to find, since it's located in a basement area, once you find it you'll find yourself unable to leave until last call. The crowd is unpretentious, gracious, and very open. There are beer specials, specifically $2 for PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon) which most of the regulars opt to partake in. The lights are always low and time seems to fly when you're there. If you didn't come with friends, you'll leave with some - and a great (albeit fuzzy with PBR on sale) memory of the night. |

Mina used to work as an office clerk in one of the bigger companies in the city. Just very recently though, she tendered her resignation. She decided that it was time for her to stop working for other people and start to work for herself. And so with the little savings that she has, Mina thought of putting up Derby catering services. With the help and support of her family, Mina managed to hire some people to help her in the operations. Although she started really small, Mina started to notice that her business is growing day by day. After only a year, she has already established herself as one of the more competent caterers around. By word of mouth, her client base started to grow in number. Mina hopes to branch out to other cities when the time comes. When asked if she did not regret resigning from her job, Mina has this to say, I am very happy where I am now. I have been blessed and I have no reason to regret anything. |

Vanessa is very excited these days. She is counting the days till her mom comes home. Her mom happens to be a caterer in Leicester. Vanessa should have been in Leicester by now, but she chose to stay with her dad. Her parents got divorced many years back. Vanessa stayed with her dad because her dad is sick and she could not afford to leave knowing that nobody will take care of him. Her mom felt bad but she understood and respected Vanessa's decisions. Just recently her mom called to inform her that she was coming home for a short vacation. It has been six years since she last saw her mom. So many things already happened but there is still one thing that she hopes to happen - for her mom to be able to forgive her dad. Once, she asked her mom, Mom, will you ever forgive daddy one day? Is there no chance for you to get back together? Her mom would only smile. But Vanessa hopes that when her mom sees her dad in person, she would learn to forgive and forget. |

If you are preparing a cake for a girl’s debut or a cake for your niece’s 16th birthday, it is very important to think about placing certain decorations on the cake. To help you with your challenge, here are some cake decorating tips for you to think about. One of the most common decorations when it comes to birthdays including female teenagers includes a set of flower decorations. Making a chocolate cake or chocolate mousse topped with pink edible flowers would be a very nice present. You can arrange the flowers in a bouquet form so as to make an emphasis on the cake.
If you are making a rectangular cake, you can place the flowers on the sides or the corners and place your dedication at the center of the cake. If you do not want to place flowers, you can still place decorations using sprinkles and an addition of chocolates to add more texture to your cake. You can also place icing decorations but make sure to place the cake in a place which is not so hot because all of the decorations will melt. |
