    Okay, this afternoon's agenda has one item:  sleep.  So, I'll make this short & picture sweet.I loved the "simple" of this cake. It was very fun to put together.

    Oooh...ahhh... Love, love, love it! Did you actually make those daisies?

    For some reason the thought came to me that this cake would have been perfect at my parent's wedding reception (late 60s). :) But I'm sure they didn't have anything this grand.

    Beautiful,beautiful! I love the close-up picture. Edible and visual art, for sure. And those brown paper bag packages were too cute. I would have trouble eating them. I loved the food coloring postage stamps. They made it perfect!

    (The post about your yellow roses made me laugh! So adorable.)

    Simple, my eye! It's beautiful and fancy and eye-catching and well, anything but simple.

    I hope your nap does not have cakes in it.

    I LOVE this one! It is so adorable!! Hey I need you to send me pictures of that one that you made Jodee's husband. I need to make that for a friend, okay obviously not like yours but I am making one this week with some friends for a friend and wanted to see it if you had pictures.

    Yes on Monday night!! I am in a dinner exchange group and Monday is my night, can we do it like 6:30ish after dinner? When do you guys eat?

    I *love* this cake. It's breathtaking! I just love how perfectly you mastered the random placement. It's a masterpiece! Did she just love it??

    My kind of cake, for sure -- and I agree wtih Kelly about the random placement. . . Oh, I feel so lucky that you beg me on a weekly basis to make Reagan's first birthday cake. I know it'll turn out fabulous!

    Um do you think by chance you could fly into Des Moines next month and create Caleb's 1st b-day cake? He might have to suffer a Wal-Mart creation.

    My birthday is August 17th. I want that cake. Wanna come visit?

    Your idea of simple and mine are completely different I'm afraid. It is the sweetest, happiest cake I've seen.

    Beautiful! I'd like to know what is simple about that. We obviously inhabit two different cake-making worlds entirely.
