About me
My name is Rosa Lee, I am a Wilton Cake Decorating Instructor and teach Courses 1, 2, 3, and Fondant and Gum Paste for the City of Benicia and at Joann Fabric store. I make wedding cakes and cakes for other occassions. I'm always looking for fun ways to wow people with cake. Cooking is part of my Italian Culture. Sauce is always homemade...None of that jar tomato sauce..I am an artist and crafter. Love to knit, crochet, scrapbook, make jewelry, paint. I have 5 cats. Fun to have a myspace page and a facebook. myspace.com/rosescakedecorating on facebook Rosa Lee Appleby and on youtube.com/CakesBenicia. I moved to California when I was 10 and am married with 3 children. I would do almost anything for a laugh. Enjoy gardening, swimming, bike riding, the library. I have done a lot...I worked as a secretary at Chevron, Kaiser, Summit Medical Center. I was an art teacher for middle and high school. For 6 years, I was the Event Coordinator at Michaels. Working with children with learning disabilities for the school district is interesting. Some of the disabilities are autism, mental retardation, while others are emotional or kids being expelled for one reason or another. Working in the Bakery at Safeway is challenging. I became a new grandmother April 10, 2009. I love watching her grow...she has discovered at the age of 7 months that she has an attitude. I lost 20 lbs by simply limiting the amount of sugar I eat. No more than 15 grams a day and I lost 20 lbs. I have been a sugar addict for many years...Sugar is in everything almost....I quit drinking fat free milk because it has more than 13 grams in one cup.
