After a year and a half in the making the day finally arrived - June 28, 2008 to launch
belscriba.com! With our dearest and closest friends and family standing by,
belscriba.com was launched at 7:30 pm.
Our friends and families reactions were pretty funny actually. They couldn't come to terms that my mom and I were cartoons! Plus, they all know she really can't stir anything that fast but man, is she a crazy lady at that sewing machine. Thanks
Pam and
Brad. You did an amazing, amazing job bringing our dream to life.
And thanks to Karen Moore, for an edible version of our
Babeez Cake. As you can tell from my mom's reaction, she could not believe that was a real cake. Yes, it was VERY hard to actually cut into that cake but when we did....YUMMY.
It was a really fun and special evening. Was pretty cool to have the people that mean the most to us with us as at a very special moment in both my moms and I life. Most important was the person who let me follow my dream (even when he couldn't quite conceptualize my vision.) You changed my life when you sat behind me in Moral Theology at Assumption.
The below anthem, written by the folks at
is something we shared with everyone that evening that captured how we felt about our journey in creating
Babeez Cakes.
Ignite the spark in your soul and lay down the
tracks to the songs in your heart. Define your reason for being;
go deep, soak up your essence, then honor your authentic self.
Break the chains that bind you.
Free yourself from your self imposed restrictions
and be courageous towards all that you dread.
Don't let the fear of judgment quell your spirit.
Proudly flaunt your humanity, with all its exquisite imperfections.
Experience the edge of life. Make mistakes. Color outside the lines.
Go to the brim of what is familiar and jump off.
After all, a vibrant life is filled with stops, starts and stumbles.
Participate in your dreams and have faith.
You are standing on the edge of bliss.
Do it. Do that next big thing.
Become your own hero!
