This is probably my favorite cake I have ever made, cuteness-wise. I have meant to post it on SWP for a few weeks. I thought it would be appropriate to do so today, because it is Labor Day and apparently that means Americans can eat a lot.
It tasted delicious, too. I got the recipie from kittie a few years ago. She is the bomb and my cake-making idol.
Don’t think this is going to be a trend, but I actually have a “Shot of the day” for a second day in a row!*
I am super obsessed with dew droplets on plants right now. This was taken outside my job, on my way in for the morning. It also looks good Viewed On Black. Look at that bokeh! Look at that shallow depth of field! Look at all the photographic terms you are learning by reading my blog!
*I took this before 8 a.m. this morning. It might be jumping the gun a bit to call a “shot of the day” this early on, but it is a risk I am willing to take.
There is a Flickr group called Bokeh Wednesday. I am not a member of this group, and from the looks of it, I COULDN’T be (as they are currently not accepting new members.) However, it IS Wednesday. And I DO have some shots that show off bokeh* because I just got a lens with a large maximum aperture (a 50mm/2, for those of you who care about such details) for my digital camera (I have a Pentax K20d). And you know what that means? I am turning this into a bokeh Wendesday blog post. Hurray! It’s my way of sticking it to the man for not letting me join the official flickr group (just joking. I understand the overabundance of people who are excitedly posting photos with lovely bokeh on Wednesdays. I will happily join your merry band if membership is ever opened up again!)

Your typical “out of focus lights in the background” bokeh shot
Just a picture of Adam Hite’s arm and kung poa shrimp? Yes. But I liked the bokeh.
Happy Bokeh Wednesday, people!
