Due to my new found Etsy surfing addiction (thank you Mireio) I’ve found some rather cool cake websites. Don’t ask me why…I’m like a kid with ADD at a psycadelic circus when it comes to the ‘net – I’m all over the place.
In our house a “cake” is defined as something flat and rectangular or round-ish that I attempt to smear frosting on, make a piss poor attempt to write a heartfelt message of love and affection then throw sprinkles on the damn thing load it down with candles and torch the s.o.b. It’s a very Git-R-Done process that produces some of the ugliest cakes on the planet….so I thought.
Until I discovered Cake Wrecks.
Tacky frosting jobs, hilarious misspellings, freaky subject matter, and snarky commentary, uh, puts the icing on the cake (sorry I couldn’t help myself).
Seriously hang out over there for a bit and read the archives, the writer is HILARIOUS!
I now feel better about my lack of skillz with confections because even with my shitty cake making techniques I have to admit even I couldn’t produce the piles of crap some people are passing as professional cakes.
Once you’re done L’ing-your-FAO and whatnot check out Mike’s Amazing Cakes to see some really fuckin’ amazing cake-work 
Granted, putting on the ‘thon is a HUGE production and tough work to boot so I understand their wanting to take a year off to rest a bit. I really do hope though that it comes back in 2009 because it’s one helluva great idea and I totally need my fix *chuckle* I <3 my Blogathon!
