There's A Big Girl Lurking Around Here

He refuses to let her be photographed alone if he's anywhere near her. Thankfully Her Royal Majesty had no issues sharing the camera spotlight with Sir Picture Scene Stealerpants. Shocker on the cake no? This cake graced us with it's presence a couple weeks ago and sadly, lasted only 3 days. Oh but it was deelish. This would be the one that I ate half of. Really, look at the cake. Mmmm. I may need to go out to the deep freezer now and get the cream puffs. Shit.

The Almighty Dollar
