Great interview Mayen. I completely agree with everyone else. You are an amazing human being and inspiration; particularly for those of us who knew they could bake but were affraid to jump into the decorating part. Your tutorials have helped me so much in learning that I can do it. Just have to-as you say- “TRY”…

Thank you so very much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and work.

Great interview mayen and lol@ “so many things and ideas that you want to try that you feel your head about to explode…” this is not an understatement…. I feel your pain if thats what you call it. ;) xoxo thank you. Ive said it so many times and wont stop saying it because you have not only inspired many of us to strive to be good at our craft but more importantly, you have taught us to “pay it forward” in whatever way we can
