Goodbye, 2008! A Year of Cakes, Pt. 1

I don't know how many times I've been talking to a client with a 2009 event and accidentally write 2008. I need to repeat the mantra, "2009 ... 2009 ... 2009" and maybe it will start to sink in. 2009 will be a fantastic year, but I have to admit, I'm still nostalgic for all the fun we had making cakes in 2008, and all the new people who came into our lives. I know, we just need to let go and move forward, embracing new adventures, but technically it's still 2008, and Rick and I want to enjoy the trip down memory lane a little longer. We decided to share with you some of 2008's cakes. These are by no means the best or most memorable cakes we made this year -- there were hundreds of them -- but rather a sampling of the variety we got to make. Clicking on the link will take you to the accompanying blog post.

Enjoy!
