What is an Iggle Piggle?
I’m not entirely sure, but this is a picture of him:
I made a fondant version of him for the cake place:
I think it looks decent, but it was hard to capture his odd bean shaped head properly.
It was fun
I didn’t cover the cake in Fondant, I’m going to have to learn how to do that properly!
Halloween 2008!
I haven’t written in a while and that is because of the amount of prepparation Hallowen required. It was well worth it!
My work takes Halloween so seriously… more so than any other place I know of. We had a costume contest, a pumpkin carve-off, a bake sale and a candy cart! It was hard to focus.
Here’s a pic of my costume in it’s full glory:
And a picture of the graveyard cake I baked for the bakesale:
aaaaand the Pumpkin we carved for the Pumpkin Carve-off at work:
My pumpkin-carving team was my co-worker Jess, our boss Libby and Pau, the Tech manager dude. It was great! We had 40 minutes to do this. Libby brought her dremmel tool and the little gourds. We carved up the little ones and each little gourd had a tea light in it. Unfortunately, we didn’t win, but I know ours was technically the best as far as carving went.
I handed out Candy at Jess’ house and the highlight was seeing a kid dressed up as “Indiana Bones”. We went to the supermarket in Kensington and had a good time too, despite some douchery.
Something about halloween + drinking + skanks = douchery. It’s inevietable but we didn’t let it get us donw!
I had so much fun! Now that it’s all over, I’ve taken down the halloween edition of anitabot – but don’t worry there will be another.

Lego Batman Video Game Cake!
Two posts in one day! This is important.
First there was Lego. Then there was Star Wars. Then there was the brilliance that was Lego Star Wars. Following that was the Genius that is Lego Star Wars the VIDEO GAME (See the trend here? Taking things Anitabot likes and combining them). Seeing how well that did, Lego Indiana Jones was born, followed by probably the best of the series: Lego Batman the Video Game. (I’m playing it right now, I like it a lot). I didn’t think it could get any better than this, but then i find out (through JessPlease) that for the launch party of the game (to which I was somehow not invited to – must have gotten lost in the mail), Elissa Strauss (the writer of the “Confetti Cakes” book that I own and swear by) created a LEGO BATMAN VIDEO GAME CAKE.
That is just a series of words that are things I like:
Lego
Batman
Video Game
Cake
This is almost as awesome as when Aardman decided to make a Wallace & Gromit movie that featured BUNNIES. (Awesomer than that would be a Wallace & Gromit: Curse of the Wererabbit video game cake).
Anywho, Here is a picture I found from Elissa’s Confetti Cakes Blog. I can’t believe I didn’t find these earlier!

Le Swoon! I think I need to make a Lego Anitabot … and then game… followed by cake. with bunnies.
