Made with love to kick off the CB, Sept. 20!
The day before our first baking endeavor, Mariel was the grand marshal in the City of Beaverton parade. Like any local celebrity, we thought she'd be riding in style on an excessively decorated float or a cherry red convertible at the very least. When we (her adoring fans) arrived to wave as she glided by, we were a bit surprised to see her revving down the road on a Yamaha Rhino ... with not a scrap of crepe paper in sight! Local nuns rode in convertibles and nerdy Boy Scouts graced the floats, but the grand marshal was downgraded to a RHINO? We were pretty disappointed to say the least. In an attempt to make up for the lackluster accommodations, we made an over-the-top rich, delicious chocolate cake and deemed it the grand marshal ... the leader of the cakes!
