We're looking at subzero temps with severe windchill. O doesn't have school until this afternoon but man, I hate the thought of him going out in -25 WC. It's just from the house to the bus and the bus to the school but brrrrrr!

It was -14 WC here. I drove them up to the bus stop even though Em was all for just going in the cold. She was quite relieved that school was not canceled.

Candy corn is basically fondant, IIRC.

Ah. This puts a whole new light on it. I'm a fan of the candy corn, I must say. And the blood reddy-ness of the Buffista cake kind of reminds me of candy corn. Okay, now I want it.

I'm curious about the stake. That must be fondant only, right? You couldn't bake cake dough in that shape and then cover it, eh?

Ginger, that's a lovely cake you made. I'm so impressed by that art.

Yesterday, it was 50 degrees. Today, my headphone cord actually froze on the way to work.

Noah is confused by the rain. It's pretty adorable.

It's adorable even picturing this, I must say.

Wow! That's a pro-level cake, for sure.

Those cakes are magnificient.

I'd like layer of marzipan under fondant. Doesn't that sound heavenly?

Yay!

My landlord just let us know that he will not be moving back to SF until August/September. That's a big relief, as I really don't have the money to move right now and would love to put it off until April when I have saved more and have raise/bonus/tax info.

Trudy: marzipan under the fondant sounds v. yummy.

I *knew* something like this would happen as soon as Stewart & Colbert went on hiatus. It never fails!

Seriously! We were discussing this over in the Comedy thread where I was lamenting the drought of new Stewart & Colbert (so not using a slash there) until next year.

Um. This could be a little TMI, but does anyone know how to get blood out of a cloth office chair?
