Graduation time!!

Hard to believe my Daughter Andrea is now a high school graduate.  Wow !  Time flies !
Of course who better to make her graduation cake than Dear ol' Dad the Bakerman.


I remember when I graduated from high school, I just wanted to be on my own and away from school and parents.
Andrea is a little different , she is accepted at Western Washington University and is looking forward to More Schooling!
I'm quite proud of her though.  She has done really well in school and has a lot of really nice friends and found a good job.  Real life is just now starting for her.

Graduation cakes are usually pretty boring so I wanted to be a little different without going all "Cake Boss" on it. I decided on a two tier Fondant cake with an edible grad cap surrounded by a bunch of matching cupcakes. Fortunately Andrea's favorite colors are the same as the school she graduated from and the college she will be attending in the fall.
Here's to all the high school graduates out there...
...make plans, shoot for goals (soccer reference there), and always remember people are more important than things.

Best wishes for the rest of your life!

Mike the Bakerboy / Dad for life.
