I made him a Stargate cake. I had to try and out do Jabba the Hut from last year! It was quite the project and it took all day long. I just got it done before he came home from work! It was my first time working with fondant and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The Chef Duff's brand from Michael's doesn't taste too bad either, it's just hard to cut through without a really sharp knife!
We took pics before Dave hauled the cake off to work to share with those who would truly appreciate it as well! It wasn't a totally "authentic" Stargate but I did my best!
I got him a 1 terabyte hard drive at Fry's in late May because they were on sale and he was salivating over the display. I still wanted to get him something to open on his birthday so I settled on something else he salivates over, Lego's! It's the anniversary edition of Darth Vader's TIE fighter. He was very excited and put it together in under 40 minutes. I told him when our baby girl comes along I'm going to have to get 2 of everything at Christmas so there is no fighting over parts!
