Amphipod Cake

My friend Kris (a.k.a. Dr. Kristine N. White) defended her research for her PhD yesterday and she did great!  She studies amphipods and the title of her PhD dissertation is: "Development of Representative Species-level Molecular Markers and Morphological Character Analysis of Leucothoid Amphipods (Crustacea: Amphipoda)".  Our friend Sarah made her the coolest cake to celebrate.  We were quite impressed with her cake-icing drawing skills : ) !
