ANYONE FOR A MASSAGE?

Our Friend Amy celebrated her birthday this past weekend. Her husband Paul asked us to make an extra special cake for her. He asked if we could make her massage table. Amy owns and operates Amy's haven in town.

I was so excited to take this project on. I love when I am ask for off the wall, different designs. And I knew that we would be staying for the party and having a good time with them.

I was so excited when I finished the cake. It came out so much better then I even pictures it in my head. All the little touches were perfect. And the table support that Nick built was spot on!

When we deliver cakes we get a lot of ohhs and ahhs from passer bys. And alot of other vendors or workers we are dealing with are always asking us questions and admiring our work. but this time was different since i actually stuck around to see all the guests.

We were the first ones to arrive with Amy right behind us. She had her party at Krazy Karaoke in town. We set the cake up and in followed Amy. Her arms were filled with bags and wine and she was so surprised by the cake she did not even put her thigns down first. She was amazed and all she could say was "This is brillant, just brillant" What a great compliment for me! I said "Its just cake" Then a few other party goers trickled in all of which had to look at Amy's cake. That is the best compliment. She personally took each and every person to see the cake. And introduced us. Everyone was amazed and could not believe it was a cake. No one wanted to cut it!

Paul was like a little kid with the cake. His eye lit up and he laughed at all the little things around, loved that there was a body and feet under the blanket.
It was an amazing feeling to know that I could make someone's party that much better with a cake. Its great to be there and see everyones reaction.

As for the fun, everyone was singing and dancing and having fun, even me. Thank you Paul and Amy for a great time. We can not wait for next year!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY!
