<p>Thanks for clarifying, Joe! I never saw the cakes "pre-cut-up" so I wouldn't have noticed the pics on 'em. I'll search 'em out this year!</p>

<p>Hi Carl! It is kind of a gag thing. Each year we have 2 large sheet cakes and every year each one has a different picture placed on it using a large printer and edible ink. So each year we feature something to put on top of the cake! This year's picture will be a knockout so bring your camera and take a picture of it. If you need anything coming to Oshkosh EAA I am just a phone call away at 920-237-1450. See you at the banquet and have a safe trip.</p>

<p>OK, Joe, I've remained silent for too long now...</p>
<p></p>
<p>Last year was my first Zenith Banquet at Convention. My wife really really really didn't want to go, as we usually hang with about 3-4 other couples each night for dinner.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I showed her the email that was sent out last year, and it had the same line: "bring your camera and get a picture of the special dessert..." I told her it must really be a big deal, so she probably should attend with me.</p>

<p></p>
<p>So, I have to ask: Is the "special" dessert that which is served the general attendees, or is that just some tongue-in-cheek insider's joke that I failed to grasp? We had a great time, she's coming back this year, and the food was good last year, but let's just say the dessert that was on our plates was "meh". It was good for what it was, but I didn't see any sparklers, flowing fountains, or other extravaganza. To be truthful, I wouldn't have thought anything about it except for you telling us to bring the cameras!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for clarifying..... Yeah, I spend too much time thinking about these things....</p>
