| I made cake for a friend's wedding. It required a HUGE and silly amount of buttercream frosting, which I foolishly allowed the Decorette Shot lady to talk me into adding meringue to, which I never do, because I am essentially a lazy and wicked person, that likes to keep things simple, but I did this time, because I wanted it all the be PERFECT. When you add the meringue, the frosting GROWS, like The Blob, and gets stuck in the motor of your mixer (let this be a cautionary tale! It does yield a beautiful, shiny while frosting though. |

| Naked layers, five hours worth of baking and mixing, and worry. |

| After much traffic and winding and worry, we arrived an hour later than I had planned for, to the wedding in the woods, and the caterers would give not one inch of space in the cool kitchen, and the florist had not left the right kind of flowers, and I was very panicked, but my dear assistant, was the voice of reason, and we just made it WORK! We frosted 60 cupcakes and a six layer cake in a HOT, dusty, lodge sort of place. |

| Not perfect, but pretty, pretty. |

| For the 4th of July, I made this patriotic pie. |

| Also in July, I made this, goat-cheese and blackberry confection for a pie contest, that I lost. |
