LOL! I'm going to be making at least a 30 layer crepe cake called a Mille-Fleur. It will have chocolate crepes with a hazelnut creme filling in each layer topped with a chocolate ganache. And if I have time, maybe a croquembouche if I feel adventurous.

I think I'll be making my famous pumpkin cake with brown butter icing.

Great meeting! Corey, you make me want to get back into amphibians again.

I may try my hand at making a paludrium in the very near future.

Cristy, thanks for hosting. I love your garden.
