december: the month of...cake??

so barring any unforseen changes in plans, i am going to attempt to make not one, but two, yes, two cakes this month. two birthdays demands two cakes right?? something like that. anyway, after sitting down with birthday girl numero uno and sketching all manner of potential cakes (including a flashlight, a pie-shaped cake, and rocky from 'chicken run') i finally decided to use the first idea and am currently working on constructing the base i need.  hopefully this works. ahaha. lets just say if it does, prepare to be relatively impressed!!  if it doesn't, i hope y'all are ready to settle for a flashlight cake.  kidding kidding.  aaanyway thats all for now folks.  i'll post pics in 2 weeks (since thats when i'll be actually making the cake part) before that though i should have a sketch or two posted so hopefully that'll hold you over. though probably not.  more later!!
