Cake Making Day!

I spent all day making a cake for a friend of mine today.  I had a blast.  Took me all day though.  I started at noon and just finished up about 10pm.  I still need a lot more experience with cake making.  I didn't aim to be perfect, but I still obsessed over it.  I do have say that the chocolate buttercream I put underneath was really good.  I was sooo tempted to keep eating it, but figured licking the bowl would be enough.  So, without further ado, here it is in all it's glory (or not).....

One day I'll buy a real square pan so my edges won't be all rounded.    

I haven't been able to knit all day between the cake and the tree trimmers being here.   That's just really cool to watch.  They've made a mess but the tree is gettin' there.  They will finish up tomorrow morning.  I'm off to knit, later!
