Cake

Okay.... slight change of plans. The cake flavors have been decided.... and the lions share of the cake will be chocolate pear, with a slightly smaller carrot cake layer, and the lemon raspberry being the smallest (but there still should be plenty for anyone salivating over it!) We only had to make one batch of the chocolate pear and oh. my. holy. heck. For a gal who isn't the biggest fan of chocolate cake (or cake in general for that matter) this was about the best thing I'd ever eaten. The pear really just knocks it out of the park. I'll have the recipe available later for anyone who is interested, but its really a simple thing to make.

Wouldn't it be funny...

Okay, due to some warped twist of fate, Richard has started calling me his "sweet hen" after likening himself to Gonzo the great. (I have no idea how strange things like nicknames come to be, but this one is at least well intended!)










So how funny would it be to use these darling action figures I found online on top of the cake, instead of the traditional figurine I purchased?

Yeah, I think I will stick with the ones I already purchased.... though these would be hysterically funny. Maybe I will save them for the first anniversary, and use them on a small cake then!
