I vaguely recall BKeithRyder posting to rfc way back when I first
subscribed. I had no idea, however, that he was an accomplished cake
decorator/maker. For those of you interested, he participated in a cake
decorating challenge the Washington Post did at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2004Jun8.html . His is
the Tootsie Roll Roses cake described at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2004Jun8.html . And,
his website is http://www.bcakes.com/ if you're interested in seeing his
works (link leads to a commercial website in which I have no financial
interest).

If you're wondering how I found out about this, you can read the thread at

I should also mention that I do not know with certainty that that is the
same BKeithRyder, but how many BKeithRyders could there be in this world?

Just one! Rona, that is so fine! Thanks! One of those weird things,
I've been thinking about him for the last couple weeks. Keith and his
SO visited the Twin Cities several years ago -- he was the first net
friend I'd met in person -- when he was participating in a cake
decorating show in St. Paul. I was awestruck then with the (dummy) cake
he'd brought to show.

You'll be pleased to know that I have on my fridge a pic of the three of
us at Al's. :-)

Yes, it is. ;-)

N.

It's definitely the same BKeith. I had lunch with him several years ago
after "meeting" him here -- we worked for the same company back then.
Funny, but I recall it being a rather un-foodie kind of lunch...burgers at
TGIFridays' or something like that.

From his picture in the Post, he seems to have changed a little (haven't we
all!). He was mentioned last weekend in a Post Magazine article about two
Post writers who made their friends' wedding cake:

I loved the Tootsie Roll rose cake, and the others made for that article!

Ohmigosh! Now, there's a name from the past. Along with Constable Tim
and others dearly missed.

And I thought I was the only one who noshed at Al's with you!

I hear from Constable Tim a couple times a year.
I take others to Al's, too. Seems like the thing to do. :-) Bonnie
Madre (an rfc old-timer and probably my first net friend) and Tom are
coming to town in a month -- going to have to decide if four of us want
to descend -- it's hard to get seating for four together.
And the pic of me and thee is still up at Al's.

Whoops, no, the picture was in the June 8 cake decorating article. It was
in the print edition...I can't find it online.

Well, of course it is. Look how *cute* we look!
