A Little Friendly Comptetition



So, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to have my own personal "Food Network Challenge"-- Okay, it's only the Central Florida Fair, but you gotta start somewhere, right? What was it going to be? A wedding cake. Why? Because when would I have an opportunity to prove I could make something pretty without risking the "biggest day" of some one's life. How big? Four tiers. Why? Because I can.

So, here it is! I would estimate I've put in, oh... let's say...more hours than you'd care to know. But it's comparable to a full week of working at my desk.



My mom and grandmother trekked out to the fairgrounds with me this afternoon to drop it off in the "food sciences" section of the CFL Fair exhibit building. They begin judging tomorrow, and by the time the fair opens on April 16 the ribbons will be distributed!

Even if I don't get a ribbon, I still feel pretty proud of this piece of work. Hope you enjoy!
