Back! Back! Over The Balls!

I think I'm ready to start eating more fruit, you guys.

I'll, uh, have what she's having.

 

Over at Epcot (the theme park, not our resident bunker) there's a Frozen-themed ride where the old Maelstrom used to be. That change upset a lot of fans, of course, because Maelstrom was the ONLY Disney ride to prominently feature an enormous offshore drilling rig.

So Maelstrom fans, this one's for you:

They didn't want the words "drilling rig," of course, just a picture of one. Much like the chocolate oil drips and all the Maelstrom quotes about to flood the comments, that's just a bonus.

 

And hey, while I'm rocking the boat, here's a Brexit cake of a butt-bottomed champagne bottle and a cork that looks like wrinkly balls:

Too soon?

TOO LATE.

 

Thanks to Cheryl K., Ashley M., & Fay H., who I'm sure joins me in wondering if that nutty baker was later sacked.

Unreal!

A lot of modern lace designs are made with molds, but check out this handpiped number with brush embroidery:

I like the soft and delicate look. So sweet.


Or how about a bold gold?

Oooh, shiny. I like that even the flowers are made of lace!

There's a lot to love on this wedding cake, but the lace-wrapped tier is the standout for me:

Howwww is it so perfect?

This one reminds me of a bridal veil:

 Then this one wrapped the lace over an ombre color fade, very cool!

Those trailing flowers at the bottom are everything - and the tiny white bows!

And finally, one more jaw-dropper dripping in ALL the lacy accents:

WOW. No words. Just WOW.

Happy Sunday, everyone! Here's hoping your day is extra Sweet.
