Moving Cake
My husband, Warren, moved business premises last week. From a drab, depressing (no windows, no kitchen and no nearby coffee shops to visit) industrial park office to a lovely studio space above a dentist, in the lovely little village town of Holywood, complete with lots more space, floor to ceiling windows, vaulted roof, lovely wooden floor, leather sofas and lots of lovely nearby places for lunch.
I think after 4 years in the other place, it will be fantastic to work somewhere which has a much more positive vibe about it and is definitely better for creative thinking. I am so happy for him, the other office was suited to men with steel toe cap boots and three cigarettes hanging from their mouth but not at all suited to creative types, its no wonder there were so many grumpy moments about the office!
I wasn't sure how to celebrate this momentous occasion. Alcohol seemed obvious but not quite right. So I did an illustration of the team and got a cake made with it (I was so impressed by the quality of the printing on the cake!). Everyone thought it was fab and it went down a treat. The only question was 'who shall we eat first?'.
