So tell me… who is back to work already??

I’m hoping that NONE of you are! But I think I vaguely remember from my Enterprise days going back to work on January 2. It just depends on what line of work you’re in, huh?

Customer Service folks– you’re back to the grind already, right? No rest for you!

(Seriously, I empathize… never put me back in CS again!! Bleh!)

Can I tell you what the secret to happiness in a career is? Quit your day job and start a dessert blog.

I’m not even kidding around here.

Set your own hours. Feel guilty when you’re NOT spending time on Facebook. Every day is cake-at-the-office day.

I’m telling you, just do it! I mean… minus having the Dinosaur Train theme song stuck in my head all day, the thick coating of powdered sugar that has settled over my kitchen, and carrying an extra 15 lbs of chocolate chips around my waist….

…this is the life ๐Ÿ˜‰

  1. I worked this morning at 6 am! Customer Service is no fun ๐Ÿ™

    This pudding looks incredible! I don’t like rice pudding but I’m kind of obsessed with salted caramel. I guess I can give rice pudding a second chance ๐Ÿ™‚

  2. Oh my. My mouth is watering. Must make when I get home. Unfortunately I’m working lol. I only go the day of Christmas and New Years Day off. Everything in between I was working. Don’t get me wrong I love what I do but having blogging as a full time job sounds amazing. Thanks for the recipe. If I keep making the things you post I will be gaining more than 15 lbs lol.

  3. Hello! This looks so good and I am going to make it! however, I feel like this is a stupid question lol but is it 1 cup of rice before it is cooked? or after? thanks!

    • I cup of cooked rice! Not a stupid question ๐Ÿ™‚ And it’s totally approximate, you can add more if you’d like, just depends on how you like your rice pudding! And instant is just fine, since you’re cooking it first!
