You should read the recipe to get the full effect, but here's an image:



EDITED TO ADD: You think I should make this for Thanksgiving this year? It's no kitty litter cake, but I bet it would provoke a reaction.

Other items:

1) Dani, it would take too long to explain the "Still Alive" phenomenon right now, but suffice to say that it is a song written for a video game by Jonathan Coulton, aka the guy who did the Podcast from the Moon.

2) I missed the video below and now it is off YouTube... anyone know of a mirror? I suppose it's not that important but I would like to take the don't-fall-over-laughing challenge if possible.

3) Speaking of Jonathan Coulton, just making sure that any fans of his (and Paul and Storm) didn't miss this gem -- JoCo & P&S recording songs in each other's style for a Song Fu challenge a few months ago. Both are pretty dead-on IMHO, but I have to give the nod to JoCo's "Big Dick Farts a Polka" as the superior style parody. Here's the link if you missed it (scroll down a bit for links to the MP3's):

Dani, you can probably just ignore #3 unless you want more explaining...
