Tour Roundup: Pasadena, CA
On Saturday we did our 16th tour stop at Vroman's in Pasadena, CA. If you haven't been there you should go; it's awesome. And a big thanks to Connie, the book store rep, for being all around wonderful.
Some smiling faces in the crowd:
And hey, look! Our computer's working! Weird!
Our last-minute replacement baker was the phenomenal Linda Darck of Sweet Art Cupcakes. She made a meringue-based buttercream that was sooo good. The chocolate tasted like rich chocolate mousse, and John loved the strawberry so much that he stole a bunch of them to bring back to the hotel room for later. :D
Plus, look how pretty!
And a few of our fav wreckplicas:
A few fun Disney ones:
The photo on the table is of the Epcot attempt that went horribly, hilariously wrong. ;)
Seriously, you guys have mad wreckerating skilz.(We'll put the rest of the entries on Facebook later this week, so watch for those.)
And our "winners!":
We didn't get a close-up of the stuffed bunny on the cupcake, but as you can see, it was a stuffed bunny. On a cupcake. John laughed so hard I think he teared up a bit. Then he stole the bunny. (Yes, we still have it.)
The suggestively hairy graduation cheese! Isn't it great?And our grand prize "winner":
Complete with censor bars. Awesome.Thanks to everyone who came out! Oh, and thanks also to wreckies Mike & Michelle for taking us to an amazing Afghan restaurant later, and not kidnapping us. That was swell.
