No, not that you pervs.

I accompanied my wife to Austin this past weekend, where she competed in a cake decorating contest. Well she came away with a First place in her division/category (Sculpted Cakes). She was pretty happy, and I was still that awkward husband in the corner.

Well without further ado, here's the award wining cake.

note: this is 100% edible.
