I'm A Doctor, Not A Chef
March 22 was my roommate's birthday, and he's a big Trekkie.* Normally for my roommates' birthdays I just bake a standard cake and add some frosting and sprinkles on top. But considering my mom has made fantastic and creative cakes for my 21 years alive, not to mention for the rest of my family, I decided to get a little creative and make something he wouldn't forget:
And here's his reaction, and another, and a nice smile. (Sorry, ladies, he's engaged. )
The store-bought Pillsbury frosting isn't exactly the best for shaping, but I had to make do as I've never tried making my own, nor do I have the proper tools. I would say that, for a first attempt, it turned out pretty good.

Incidentally, William Shatner was born 59 years earlier. Coincidence, I think not. What a copycat though, taking my roommate's birthday.
