Today has been a fun day - it's where my professional and personal passions have come together...in a cake! We had the pleasure of hosting Lt. Joe Kenda at the office today - to help kick off a new season of Homicide Hunter, which (shameless plug) premieres tonight at 10p on Investigation Discovery!

To mark the special occasion, I made a special cake for Kenda - a two-tier, 20+pound creation representing a police officer's uniform and including a few special ID touches: the ID logo and Kenda's catch-phrase "my, my, my" on the back and a talking Kenda bobble-head as the cake-topper. The bottom tier was a 4-layer chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and the top tier was a 4-layer yellow cake with vanilla buttercream.

I had a lot of fun making this cake and it was extra special to share it with Joe, his wife Kathy and the rest of the ID team. And I think folks had a lot of fun eating it, too!
