Bridal Blue

Yesterday I returned to my old stomping grounds.  I delivered a cake for a bridal shower at the middle school where I used to teach, and where I still have so many dear friends.  The shower was for Betsy, who is acting as technology coordinator for the school this year.  In a school as large as that one (~2500 kids!!  Hundreds of teachers!!), she has a gigantic job.  I know all the staff wanted to shower her with love and well wishes for her life as an old married lady! :-)

Because it was a school-wide shower, this cake needed to serve a lot of people.  It wound up looking quite like (and weighing as much as!  Mercy!) a wedding cake, but if I know one thing about teachers, it's that cake never survives more than 24 hours in a school.  Hopefully they all enjoyed it.  Congrats, Betsy!!
