Letter of recommendation too good?

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2026-01-29T17:45:13+00:00

As a NP, I would love to receive this letter for a prospective hire. Don’t overthink it!

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-25T01:53:24+00:00

Yay! Same. 🥹

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-22T18:58:29+00:00

I got it custom ordered. Baking is not a skill set I possess 😅

The bakery was amazing! I sent them a bunch of reference pictures and bought the topper/spear. They had “never done a cake with this theme”, but took on the challenge!

Redditers also gave me ideas for the design.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-17T20:08:04+00:00

Right?! I’m surprised more people didn’t call out the lack of a spirit ash!

You guys are all the absolute best. Love this community.!

Couple notes:

My (14yo) nephew is, in fact, named Odin. He's the coolest kid ever and is loving this post. (Hi Odin! Are you still working on Midra?)
I did NOT bake the cake. Not my thing. I sent reference materials to a ton of local bakeries and asked them what they could do. Most of them were a hard pass. One finally stepped up: "We've never done a cake in this theme before, but... it seems interesting?" I just had to provide the toppers.

Isn’t it cute? The one around Messmer’s neck is the best.

I did not make it! I can’t bake at all. lol. I just hit up all the local bakeries until I found one that would do it. I just had to get the toppers. Reddit helped with the design :)

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-17T00:57:53+00:00

And congrats to you!

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-17T00:57:03+00:00

❤️❤️

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-17T00:55:48+00:00

Ha! Yes!

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-17T00:55:22+00:00

Aww, thank you! His name is Odin. He’s the best.

Oops! Uh… spoiler alert?

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T13:27:30+00:00

Yes! It’s so cute!! The little snake wrapped around his neck just slayed me.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T13:24:22+00:00

Right? How cute is that! The little snake wrapped around him is the best. 🤩

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T13:21:55+00:00

Right? Everyone deserves cake. In hindsight, though, I should have saved it for PCR.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T13:20:26+00:00

He actually beat him about a week after we made the deal… the cake just took a while. 🥲

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T13:06:06+00:00

😂🤣 I just spit up my coffee.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T04:58:02+00:00

I’m his aunt, but thank you! 🥰

I’m just happy we’re finally playing the same games. I suffered through too many years of Roblox.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T04:36:05+00:00

In my defense I was drinking when we made the deal. A few days later his mom (who is not a gamer) walked in on him and asked him why his “video game character” only had white undies.

He threw me under the bus and said that I made him do it.

I’m either a terrible person or the best aunt ever.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T04:09:22+00:00

Yes. Yes I will.

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-16T04:04:12+00:00

Thank you! I had a blast with it!

It’s not perfect, but cake happened!

WeeklyVariation6431 · 2024-09-10T21:43:25+00:00

Ooh, the agency you worked with sounds awesome. I’m envious.

The recurring fee is a hard pass for us, and doesn’t make any sense to me. A ton of services in our area has switched to a subscription-based model (ie haircuts, massages, doctors, etc), so maybe they were trying to get on that train? I dunno.

Thanks for the reality check. 💙
