Wreckies

On October 20th I went to see Jen and John Yates of Cakewrecks! My mom went with me which only seemed appropriate since she was the one who introduced me to the site in the first place. We had a terrific time shopping before hand. And of course the actual talk they gave was enlightening and funny, exactly as we expected. And the book signing was amazing. They took their time with everyone. John passed out slices of cake to those of us waiting in line while Jen was alternately gracious and witty. It was really gratifying to meet and be appreciated by people I admire so much.

In preparation for the book signing, I painted a shirt inspired by a cake from the blog.

They loved it and took a picture of it:

The Darth Vader glows in the dark. 
And of course I had to have a picture with Jen.

After this, there was great cake. So much fun!
