Clown and cake carnage, originally uploaded by Erin aka Tink*~*~*.

Back at the ranch, Tootie carved up great honkin’ hunks of that HUGE coconut cake I won and wrapped them up for friends to enjoy. I had a petite honkin’ hunk of it, for which I shall pay on the treadmill tomorrow 😉 It is our friend’s birthday, but she is far away in California at the moment so we decorated my petite hunk and I blew out the candle for her.

I could not finish my hunk, petite though it was. Despite this fact, it was a great day spent with great friends! Many thanks to Kim whose idea it was to attend the Barista Challenge.

Barrista Challenge on Sanibel Island – the scoreboard, originally uploaded by Erin aka Tink*~*~*.

This is where we put a tick mark next to our favorite concoctions. As you can see, primacy and latency may have been in effect here – people really seemed to like the first and last tastes of the afternoon.

Gifts for the "People’s Choice" participants, originally uploaded by Erin aka Tink*~*~*.

Everyone who showed up for this event and took part in the "People’s Choice" tasting and voting got to take home this cute ceramic spoon and mug combo with a bag of chocolate-covered espresso beans. I am saving those for my SIL when she comes to Florida in a few weeks – I have enough trouble sleeping as it is, thank you very much. Don’t need to be snacking on espresso beans!!!

ME! That’s right – I won this HUGE coconut cake at the coffee tasting event. Since I could not possibly even make a dent in that much cake, my friends were kind enough to take great hunks of it off my hands.
