assignment america.

I was thinking today about how cool it would be if someone made a series of sheet cakes that were decorated like old school board games. Games like Mousetrap and Life? I'd do this but I honestly can't have that much cake in the house.

Update:
I am an unoriginal bastard.


(Risk?)

Yeah that'll do.

Drinking it icy cold as intended could would be nice but what about heating it up and drinking it warm? Actually the more i think about the concept in general i realize it's actually kind of gross. No, pretty gross. But not horrendously gross.

WHAT

this blows that other Rubik's Cube cake right out of the fucking water.



You too can create this masterpiece. Directions brought to you by Pimp That Snack .

shame.

remember kids, you have to wait till the cake cools before you frost.

Another dazzling entry!

By faithful reader Chrystina Riggs. Nothing like a baby/toddler birthday that brings out the cake-artistry in people. AND this is a total twofer!! Same party TWO sweet 50 pound cakes. ANd thank you Chrystina for providing delightful commentary so I don't have to think this morning. Bless you.

"Saturday my boyfriend and I attended our nephew's 1 year birthday. My boyfriend's mom decided to make a plane cake because, for whatever reason, our nephew's parents decided on having lots of planes and crap in the baby room. Now, admitedly, the cake isn't that bad given that its maker has multiple schlerosis, but it is a monstrosity."



"It took 6 boxes of cake mix and I'm pretty sure the icing was straight sugar. The wings were chocolate, the rest was yellow cake.The leftover pieces were made into a creepy cake crucifix, which I'm fairly sure is blasphemous to eat, but the 1-year-old ate it anyhow cos babies only go to purgatory or something. Point being, the cross cake was all lopsided and the pieces were all vastly different shapes and sizes, though it is hard to tell by the photo. There were jokes about taking home the leftovers, of which there was quite a lot: "I'll take the fuselage" to "Oh, I guess this is the real mystery of Lost.""

Wicked Awesome.

And the parent of the year award goes to:

The person or persons that decided it was in any way a good idea to give "Lil Derrick" a Grand Theft Auto cake for his fourth birthday.

Aside from the obvious inappropreateness of a four year old having a cake themed from one of the most violent games ever is the question of whether or not a four year old is even capable of playing the game. When I was four the most violence I ever encountered was on Knight Rider. I don't think the Atari console was even out yet. Yikes.

This post is dedicated in loving memory to my husband whom I will never see again due to today's release of GTA4.

Happy Birthday Carissa!!

is everyone turning 30 this year? Christ.

Earth-Day is her Birth-Day

Battlestar Galactica is kind of a mini bain of my existence. My husband and a few friends are like HARDCORE fans of this show, and now that I think of it anyone I know who is a fan at all is a HARDCORE fan. I always came home late from derby practice when it was on so i never got into it though I sure do hear about it a lot. Like, a LOT. And he has a crush on Starbuck, but I can deal with that.
Here is a totally amazing flickr set found by reader Chrystina Riggs.
