Happy Presidents Day

100 Things to see at the fair #38: Political Cake Design

Presidents Day was set to be celebrated on the third Monday of February as it falls close to President George Washington's birthday. Thinking of our nation's first president reminded me of this cake which showed up four years ago (the last year we had a presidential election) at the Tennessee State Fair. We will all probably see a lot of donkeys and elephants this year, albeit not in cake form.

This is one of my all-time most viewed photos, as it was linked to by the immensely popular blog Cake Wrecks. It wasn't actually shown on the blog, as it's not fully a wreck, but since it got honorable mention in a political cake discussion, they linked to the photo and over 10,000 people took the time to click on the link.
