New Bookcases

I moved this year. I have set up several bookcases. There are 6 tall, 4 short, and two media cases. I also have two small tables.

The tall bookcases have five shelves and the short cases have three shelves. I have the shelves setup to take comic book boxes. Currently sitting mostly empty. I have comic book boxes on the bottom shelf. 2 boxes sit on the shelf sitting perpendicular.

The fourth short case holds my media and the two media cases has my non comic books and holds up the TV.

Video game stuff  like the Halo vehicle and WarCraft goes with the TV area.  

3rd bookcase is facing out of the space. I may put non toy and non comic stuff on that one. 

One of those tables is holding my fairy chess set and board. 

A short for miscellaneous like Godzilla and Lego.

A short bookcase for DC. 

Doctor Who is going to be on those shelves. 

I am reserving a tall bookcase for Marvel. 

A tall case for Star Wars. 

That Star Wars case may end up holding my ECCC and SDCC books too. 

That leaves 4 tall bookcases for GI Joe. That is not going to be enough space for my collection. I am not sure I have the space to add more cases. Those 7 tortilla boxes are going to fill up that space quickly. 

Making my Brother’s Wedding Cake

Back in January my older brother Mark asked me to make a Wedding cake. I said Yes. How could I say no? I felt privileged to be asked.

This was the cake I put out on the table for the new couple to cut. The signs were made by one of the bridesmaids. The signs are the best looking part of the cake. I do think I added one or two mini Daleks and TARDISes to the outside of the cake after this picture was taken. Below are very random photos I took during the week and months leading up to the wedding. I did try to do some test bakes but never really felt comfortable doing one.

There are very many funny stories about the Friday night cake situation. One of these days I may get around to telling the stories.
