"Cake!" (the Art Car) is finally finished--at least for the time being. It took about 50lbs of Bondo, a gallon of Behr's Floor and Porch Paint and several months of experimentation before we felt it was a respectable Art Car Parade entry. Yes, this stuff is permanent. So far, nothing has flown off while driving on the freeway and the car's MPG is only slightly worse than in its pre-artcar state.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the parade! It was loads of fun and I'm already excited about next spring. You can see pics of the other entries here: http://www.orangeshow.org/artcar.html. If you're not familiar with Houston's Art Car parade, you should know that Cake is amateur hour compared to some of these contraptions. It's worth the clicks to see the pictures.

*smooch*
