smurzqIt was delicious!!! Everyone couldn't get over how cute the decorations were. We actaully had the small one left over after the shower so my sisters and Mom came over and we ate the whole thing that night. I can't wait to see what you create for Ethan's birthday cake next week.

I like it when you make frosting animals. They remind me of old clay-mation cartoons like "Frog and Toad" and "Gumby."
