The Impossible Dream


A possum cake... found at same site as the graduation cake below, which also is known as a Linda Davick special, though the cakemaker, cakesbydarcy, is in Georgia. Since this cake was listed in the groom cake section, maybe it has dirty symbolism, but I don't know what it would be. (Your fiance looks like a possum?)

A couple of years ago I found a realistic opossum dog toy and put it in a serving dish with a lid, for Thanksgiving. I walked around the table with it, and asked a guest who didn't know me well if he'd like to try an old Southern favorite. Haha funny when I lifted the lid.

Love the Thanksgiving story; maybe I'll try it. I think a law actually passed here that makes it legal to eat roadkill.

Your eBay dress looks great! I know what you mean about those unfortunate dresses that the kids are wearing: empire waists are back; I have to have something that gives me a waistline!

The possum cake is from Steel Magnolias. They serve it at Julia Roberts' wedding. It's a great scene.

This looks more like an armadillo!

Hmm, you're right, it's the slices that give the armadillo look.
