Why so delicious?

[mayhap]

Every year it falls to me to me to decorate my little brother's birthday cake. My task is to produce a gloriously geeky creation, earning the acclaim delight of Danny and his many guests, in spite of the fact that when it comes to artistic ability, I have two left hands, and I am not actually left-handed.

This year, using one of the Dark Knight posters as my inspiration, I created the Joker cake:



A boy and his cake. Danny didn't actually know what I had planned in the way of decorating, but he was wearing his Joker t-shirt fresh from the boy's department at Target anyway.




Why so delicious?



Danny does his best deranged grin, surrounded by the energy drinks that were to fuel his all-night partying.



Siblings, partners in crime, total dorks.

...I would make a comment about Danny, but, umm. I am afraid that it might bring out the overprotective, violent big sister in you. /o\

(Also! I am tentatively thinking about swinging by our old stomping grounds this July-ish, assuming that I win the lotto between now and then. Yea/nay?)

You would callously break the poor gnome's plaster heart? :( He actually has a girlfriend now, and she dressed up in his Batman costume at the party. Too cute omg.

I miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiss New York! Which lottery were you planning on winning?

...omg that is adorable. Also, umm, does this mean that Danny/girlfriend = canonical Joker/Batman?

And I have no idea! I mean, now especially is not really the time for me to be making big splurges like buying plane fare back to New York, but...well, it's not like I don't have the time now, right? :Dd

I say it does and i will not be convinced otherwise. *nods*

Yeah, I need to be figuring out various real grown-up life expenses over the next couple of months, but I might just be able to fit a trip to New York in there somewhere. And I would love, love, love to see you again!

Ha haha ! And if you type in "danny nintendo cake" yours is still on the first page of google image results. These cakes receive critical acclaim.

[mayhap]

I know! I have this reputation to live up to! Oh, the pressure!

I actually heard one of Danny's friends ask him, "Do you tell her to make these cakes, or does she just do them?"

Hi just dropping by to let you know I'm alive. I loved the cake, at first I thought it was a haloween mask.

[mayhap]

Yay for still being alive! I plan to start updating more frequently again; we'll see how that goes.

I think I'm going to suggest that Danny dress up as the Joker for Halloween. I think he could pull it off.
