The third of our monthly prizes was awarded yesterday to my sister-in-law Lynn Eddy. She won for having her name chosen from all those who posted on the blog in the month of June. Lynn had posted a number of times, thus increasing her chances and it paid off! On July 1st, my daughter Katie (Lynn's neice!) drew the winner from a Gladware container, and it was all legit. When I told Lynn that she was the winner, she decided to wait until a special occasion to redeem her prize. Well, that occasion is upon us, and this little 8" round cake traveled with Lynn and her husband Rod to Ohio where it was shared tonight in honor of: 1) their first visit with their newest grandson Breccan (baby brother to Carraig), and 2) the wedding anniversary of their son Rod and his wife Emily, the proud parents of these two little boys.

Here's a photo collage of Lynn's prize as it came together -- a chocolate on chocolate cake using the
Hershey cocoa recipe on the back of the cocoa tin (my standard):
So, welcome little Breccan, and Happy Anniversary Rod and Em! Safe travels home. Lynn and Rod! Hope you have a wonderful time celebrating, and brush those crumbs off your face!
