Well, if I can find the pics from previous years.<br /><br />Jeanne: I think the dragon one is cool, but the Grinch one was pretty amazing to look at, which may not be clearly reflected in the pic. The Whos are in a ring around the bottom of the cake doing their singing thing, and there's just tons of detail all over the thing.<br /><br />David: It is.<br /><br />Misha: I know!<br /><br />Rusty: Except for the part where you eat it.<br /><br />Pk: These were just on display.

I have a niece who can make cakes like that. She's 16. It's really an amazing skill, and one that many people don't rate highly enough.<br /><br />As for the other crafts, that clock looks incredible, TOO. <br /><br />Great pics.
