This cake really challenged me mentally.

My friend, who asked me to make this for her dad,

believed in me all along. I, however, doubted myself. 

It is so good to be on this side of doubt, to see that 

I am capable of being stretched out of my comfort zone

 and accomplishing something like this.

Happy Retirement, Don. And, Kristen, thank you

for believing in me!
