Clearly I need this cake for my inevitable gay wedding to Lee Pace and/or Richard Armitage
Courtesy of Cake Wrecks' "Sunday Sweets" (i.e., non-wreck) feature, check out this cake: best wedding cake ever, or BEST wedding cake ever?
In other news, I am now a confirmed Lushie. In addition to my already-documented love for their bath bombs, I will swear by their American Cream conditioner and, even more so, their King of the Mods hair gel (also yay, Mighty Boosh reference!). My hair is softer than it's ever been and, for the first time in my life, it is actually manageable and obedient even on days when I don't wash it! Also the hair gel has the most amazing lime and grapefruit smell, and serves as a great pick-me-up on those early morning days where I'd so much rather still be in bed instead of actually up and around doing stuff.
Finally, my AWOL-ness should abate at least SOME after this week, since I should then hopefully be finished with a draft of my comps portfolio and then just have to do revising and reading, and no more actual writing. Also next week is our Spring Break, so I won't have any fixed time commitments like teaching or tutoring or events taking away from my comps preparation time (and hence will hopefully at least be able to start checking my flist again!).

Re: lush
I like the bath bombs in theory but I can't use bubblebath or bath salts. Sucks to be me.
I also have one of their massage bars (the cinnamon one with azuki beans) and if you are ever in the position to give/get backrubs, the experience is quite pleasant.
And the chocolate lip balm is pretty amazing too. I can't remember if it's shiny or not. You may want to verify this before you end up looking as fabulous as your lip balm tastes. ;)
