My niece Jessica turns 11!

My niece Jessica who turns 11 years old tomorrow, is a one of a kind. Forget girly things like baby dolls, barbie's, bows and frills. No, instead give her animals or reptiles of any kind, or better yet a snake.
When I asked Jessica last week what she wanted her cake to be this year for her birthday, and thinking that she would surely come up with something different than a snake because that is what I made for her last year, I was wrong, because this year she once again wanted a snake. Not just any snake, but I received a drawn picture of what it should look like, with color's instructed and colored in to boot.
It had to be long and thin. It had to be orange. It had to have brown circle's on it's back with yellow on the inside. It eye's must be white with black lines down the middle of them and the tongue must be red. I came up with making it go through the dirt in a flower garden, but other than that I think she was quite pleased with the fact that I followed her instruction's pretty much down to the letter, and her face when she saw it was priceless. She was one happy girl and it was her favorite kind of cake...chocolate cake, chocolate icing and shaped into a snake.
What more could a girl like Jessica want? Happy 11th birthday Jessica!
