Were you ever one of those kids who used to sneak-read?

Your parents would tell you lights out and you'd pretend to sleep until you could hear they were out of range. Then you'd sneak a torch, or any handy light source, under the covers and get stuck into a novel, heart beating from the adrenaline at the thought of getting caught.

Another epic cake! If you had done this in a couple of days it would have been amazing. The fact that you did it in one and with all the busy-ness of uni, is epicly amazing.

If you want a job done, give it to a busy person. ;)

It's a bit like that. =P Did you happen to see Kalpana's comment on the link of yours that I shared on Facebook last night?

Aw, thank you so much. It definitely gave me a trip down memory lane when I was making it! I sorta thought I was a bit weird as a child for sneak-reading, so it's really lovely to hear so many shared the experience.

Thanks for commenting. :)

A great baker and an even greater story teller!!!! ext_994442 January 19 2012, 12:42:34 UTC

when Cameron brought the cake for big cake day I realized that cakes can also be work of beauty... My longing to relish the cake was overpowered by my desire to stand back and admire the art.

But this cake goes even further.... It shows that a cake can even tell a story and transport you in time... amazing story build up and the visual realization of it via a cake is a fabulous effort... Kudos to you for that!!!!
