So today has just been a really good day for book nerd references in my daily life. Since I’ve graduated and been home I’ve been picking up shifts at my stepmom’s catering hq/cafe/bakery, and today I found out that our awesome baker, Lori, MADE THIS CAKE FOR HER NEPHEW. Like, a real live Cake Boss x8927356098256 who can make Hogwarts out of fondant has been in my midst all this time, and I didn’t even know. My brother’s friend who I work with had seen the photos before and he showed them to me on his phone today and I was just speechless. I think all I could say was “Lori… Lori ohmygod.” I mean look at that thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And then I asked her if I could post the photos on YW because thousands of book lovers need to know that such a cake exists. Imeanreally. I wish I was her nephew!!

Also pretty soon you’ll be able to see more of Lori’s work at dianebrowne.com, when I get done rebuilding the site, haha!
