Blogger Turned Baker!

While I may have spent a good portion of the week surgically attached to the computer monitoring my email with messages from WhyMommy & team about the aforementioned NASA grant , this week also brought a different challenge…Execute the wedding cake that I volunteered to make for Little Miss Techie’s fabulous kindergarten teacher’s wedding shower.

The next challenge was to transport it to school without frosting mishaps/toppling in the car/tripping down school steps, getting Little Miss Techie to ceremoniously place the bride and groom atop said cake while keeping it away from 16 sets of little fingers upon arrival.
