Ernie or a way to frighten your child. You decide.

On Wednesday Jenni posted photos of the cake she made for her son Oscar's 3rd birthday. He wanted a pink monster truck. I think she did an excellent job.

I made a comment about a cake that I made for my eldest son when he was young. And Jenni responded promptly. Here's the email I received from Jenni with my comment attached.

Nice job. I once made an Ernie cake for one of my boys. Ernie turned out looking a lot like Don King. http://normlevy.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/don_king.jpg

It's pretty easy to see the resemblance.

    Your Ernie cake turned out way better than anything I could ever attempt! Princess Nagger identified him right away! ;)

    Bah, you're being too hard on yourself (and Ernie). I think the cake is a dead ringer!
