 But this cake was WAY fun to make! Dan spotted the little tree at the store the other day and it's just perfect. The snowman is a pepper shaker -- his friend, the salt-shaker, is still in the package!

I don't know how many buckets they helped fill, but I'm sure there will be some thankful ladies later this month!
