This Post is Brought to you by the Number 809
October 17, 2008 Why 809? Because that's the number of votes Cake Wrecks received over at the Blogger's Choice Awards. That's right, Wrecks fans, WE WON!!
Not only that, but your voting made CW win by a landslide: 300 votes more than second place! Of the 37 or so categories on BCA, I think I only saw 3 other winning blogs with more votes than Wrecks: most winners had between 200 and 500 votes. Wow. So thank you - all 809 of you - for your completely spontaneous support: I am just floored by your response, and very grateful.
Now, about your evil henchmen duties...

congratulations! the blog truly is hilarious.
Congratulations, Jen! You and your wreck-tastic pics deserve it!
Congratulations! A much deserved win!
Congrats! Now don't get all crazy on us and think that you can become TOO important for us little people. KEEP THEM WRECKS A COMIN'
Congratulations - well deserved.
Plus that Mom2mysixpack is a formidable foe. She made me pee my pants a couple of times, but just not as reliably as you.
:'-) <--- tears of laughter.
Congratulations! It's certainly well-deserved. I look forward to Cake Wrecks every morning to start my day off with a laugh.
Contgratulation!
Are you going to have an *ahem* cake to celebrate?
Congrats! You deserve it!
"Congradumalations". I found your site yesterday via a friend's recommendation and I have shared it with all my work colleagues. I have achieved nothing at all today save for giggling over your pics. I am now, though, truly terrified. For I have a professional cake on order for my Dad's 60th and it is based on a trout. I think I may be in trouble...I will of course be in touch should the dreadful happen...
Congrats - you deserve it!!

As always, thanks for the wreckporting. It makes my 8:00 class so much brighter every day, especially when I have to fake a cough to keep my laughter in. Which is every day.

Huge congrats! I have long aspired to be a henchman- or henchwoman- or henchperson as the case may be.
Awesome! (And I didn't even get to vote!)
Congrats!!! It's funny... I read number 2 (Because I Said So) as well. Both are brilliant, but I have to say, you've left me gasping for oxygen more often. :)
Congratulations! Keep up the great work. Thanks for all the fun.
congrats!! well deserved.... while the others are funny, yours is more consistently so and the only one I visit daily for my morning laugh!
I made my mom vote too...
This is the worst post yet. Very little humor, poor quality picture of a cake. I don't even get why it's "wrecktastic".
WORST POST EVER!!!!

I didn't vote. There was voting? When? Where? Do you have to be a member of the academy to get a ballot? Am I just clueless? I would have voted for you, Wrecks. You're awesome.

I would of voted but I've only just found your blog. Its cheered me up no end although I couldn't understand wht you had against cupcake cakes, as I pictured in my mind a lovely stand full of cupcakes, and then I looked through your blog and oh my goodness! I can't tell you how much your blog cheered me up, I've just had to share it with everyone!

I'm waiting to see this on a wreck: "Conflatulations!"
As stated by everyone else, you deserve it! I'm so happy for you.
With all due respect, your second place competition has quite a following and is responsible for sending this reader (and I'm sure many more) your way. And boy am I glad she did. I pass you along to anyone who will listen. I'm so glad you won!
So, yea, where's the celebratory cake?
ps Also, thanks for the Jim Gaffigan connect. Love him, too.
