Boston in the Fall
Thanks to our two new stops we added on the tour, John and I can now say we have been to Boston in the Fall. The town and trees were lovely, of course, but they paled in comparison to the goodies awaiting us at the show:
It's Cake Rex!
[announcer voice] But wait, there's mooore!
We also had the lovely Erin and Sharon of Cakes By Erin provide several delicious sheet cakes, PLUS this:
John, who likes to live life dangerously, referred to this as Yankee Stadium [smirk], but it's actually Fenway Park. (Not that *I* know any better, of course, but he was corrected rather passionately by the crowd.)
And here are all of our lovely bakers!
From the left, that's Melissa, Jenn, Sharon, & Erin. These gals rock, y'all.
Ready to see our "winners"?
Here we have Alyssa, Meagan, and Lisa, our grand prize winner.
We were in the city of Framingham, so Lisa got all literal on us with her winning entry. (It's a frame around a ham, see?)
You might not recognize this Wreck, because it's one of the new ones in the book. (Have I mentioned lately that the book has about 75% NEW Wreckage? And that it makes for an EXCELLENT holiday gift? Hmm?)
My Wrecksistant Extraordinaire Anne-Marie drove from Maine to attend the show, and she was thrilled to see this bed bug Wreckplica from one her posts. (Complete with ravioli pillow!)
Here are a few more crowd pleasers:
Disco Newt!
They got sprinkles.
It's Cake Rex!This delicious dinosaur was made by Jenn, John, & Melissa of Birchgrove Baking. They also supplied this super cute sheet cake:

Lisa, please tell me you're an English teacher. ;)

And lastly, I have to share what artists Kelli N. & Travis D. made for me, because it made me very, very happy:
Ta da!
Isn't it awesome?!? Mere words cannot describe how much I love this plaque. So thanks again, Kelli & Travis; this is going to look great on my "Wrecky World Domination" wall. ;)
