A little past due, but too pretty not to share. My going away cake from my old job.

How beautiful! Looks like they appreciated your work.... or your leaving. Which one?!?!

They must be going to miss you! What a beautiful cake!

wow- thats a mazing. were the flowers edible or real?

That cake is so pretty, I can just tell it tasted good, too!

What a pretty cake! It would almost be a shame to cut it (almost).

I tried to email you back from your comment on my blog, but my email is always rejected, so here's my answer to your question from yesterday. I've not attend a Knitter's Guild meeting, but I am somewhat involved with okiefiber. Many of the people in the Yahoo group meet twice a month for a spinning "guild" meeting out at the home of the owner of Mountain View Weavery in Edmond. It's a great group with lots of age ranges from college aged to seniors. That group is responsible for organizing the Route 66 Rendezvous fiber festival in the spring and the Fall Retreat which will happen in October (http://okiefiber.blogspot.com/).

That being said, yes, these are great places to meet and learn. Since I only have experience in the spinning group, I'll speak to that. This group of women do it all, from raising the animals to processing to dyeing to spinning, knitting, and weaving. They love to share their knowledge, so I think it's a great resource. And it's lots of fun, too.

Hope this has been of some help to you, and you should consider coming to the retreat in October. It will be lots of fun!

Lovely! That reminds me it is time for me to think about a cake for the Princess' bday -- crack that whip!

anne:

wow! that is SOME cake—they must have really loved you . . .

ohhh yum! Was it as good as it looks?

That's a cake? Looks more like a flower garden to me. It's beautiful. As is your WOTM shawl. Glad to see you were saved from an impending knitting disaster.

Mia:

Beautiful! I bet there wasn't a crumb left :)

Was it delicious too? It looks really yummy and I might have to go and bake something just because of that picture.

I'm with Emily - now I want cake!

And you still LEFT THEM??!! Oh my gosh. They must have really loved you! Beautiful cake!
