Here in Vermont, as you may have guessed, we have a whole lot of cows.  Who wouldn't love these sweet, gentle animals?  Our logistics manager, Nina, has a darling boy named Braydon who turned 2 last weekend and more than anything, he wanted a cake shaped like one of the cows he sees all over our fine state.  Well, Nina, while a whiz at expediting trucks in and out of our facility, is not the world's greatest baker and it seemed that baby Braydon's bovine birthday bash might be without a cow cake!

  Well, thank goodness for Janet!  Janet, it turns out, not only excels at taking care of assembling and shipping all of our retail orders, she is also a baker and cake decorator par excellence!  She showed up at Nina's house to present this masterwork to young Braydon on his special day.

  Braydon loved the cake so much that Nina had to stop the birthday boy from hugging and kissing his "moo-moo" too aggressively.   As Nina began to cut into the cow cake, Braydon, forgetting that this cow was actually a cake,  exclaimed in protective urgency "Mama!! My moo-moo!"   At the end of the day, the desire for cake won out over protecting the moo-moo and the cake was enjoyed by all.
