I think it turned out pretty good...

Yesterday we had a goodbye party for some friends of ours who are moving this week. They just graduated from a nursing anesthesia program, so my bright idea for the cake was to make it in the shape of a syringe. It turned out to be much harder than I thought, but I was happy with it in the end. And then Ryan came home and I opened the box to show him and he said, "What is it?" and I felt bad about my poor cake. But then later at the party, everyone else knew what it was and thought it was really cute, so then I was happy again.
