Multiple cakes

for multiple loved ones!  Yesterday was Nate the Great's birthday so we did a nice, grown up dinner party which of course degenerated into a huge Rock Band marathon (Rock Band was his big bday gift from me).  At his request, I made him a lemon curd marbled cheesecake for his birthday cake.  He is a zombie for cheesecake!

Happy news this week: Jenny got into the UIC architecture program, which means (if she wants to) she can stay in Chicago and keep crafting with me forever!  In honor of this, and to give her extra incentive to stay, I made her a special Frank Lloyd Wright cake, also for the party.  A birthday party with 2 cakes.  It was a hit of course.  Here's Jenny's cake.  I'm considering sending this photo to the Ace of Cakes people in hopes I might get a job. . . 

And here are all the ladies who I went to Taliesin with in August.  Let's face it, the Frank Lloyd Wright cake was a hit all around.
