Since today was a very special day, I made this cake for my husband. Just a reminder of how glad I am that we met that day and how wonderful my life with him has been. I don't know why it does that half-picture thing, but if you click on it you can see the whole cake.
Today turned out to be memorable again - in 2001 I met the man I would spend the rest of my life with and in 2009 I got a call from my mortgage broker with the news that we are approved for the USDA loan we applied for!!!! We're buying a home!!!! If my mom is reading this, I mean to call you tomorrow. If she's not, then PFFFFT, why aren't you reading my blog, Mom? Neglect, pure and simple.
OH, yeah, back to the cake. I got it round-about. I was giggling at Cake Wrecks blog and found a recipe on a blog mentioned there, Bakerella. ZOMG she's awesome. Her cake looks so cool, mine is nowhere near that good. In my defense, I was letting kids help and I am not experienced with fondant.
