Critter Cakes - part 2

A koi pond was a little too cutsie for Connor's birthday. A pan of cockroaches seemed about right. And the cake was delicious...atomic chocolate with twice the amount of chocolate called for in the recipe. Topped with homemade butter cream frosting. The kids thought the roaches were pretty tasty too.

Just was we finished singing "Happy Birthday" Greydon leaned right over and blew out the candles. Every one of them. So Connor had to light them up again. No problem, he's long been a bit of a pyromaniac. There were no presents to open this year. Instead I took Connor shopping. The kid got Chanel Allure for men. Too posh for a 15 year old? We also found several pairs of new jeans. Highwaters are not the best look for a high school student.
