It looks like we have a tie... I couldn't decide which one of the following two cakes I liked better, so I've decided to give a JM Stratocaster each to...


JILL... who made a cake with a beautiful composition, delicious looking ingredients, and a nostalgic design. This one inspired the most holiday joy in me.



DANIELLE... the leg-lamp cake is clever, witty, well done, and gave a great laugh. This one was the talk of the town at the Mayer house.


Enjoy the guitars!!!

And to everyone who submitted a cake, both into an oven and to my blog, THANK YOU. I was blown away at the time you took to make such brilliant looking creations. Because of you I had the best holiday season since I was a little boy. I hope you all felt a little merrier for it, too.

Wishing you a happy, healthy and successful 2009...

With Love,
John

The Gossip Continues...

Happy New Year - 2009 starts with plenty of gossip articles:

Jennifer Aniston 'Persuades John Mayer to Marry Her'

Jennifer Aniston could be getting married again - after beau John Mayer agreed to her marriage demands.

Mayer and Aniston - who divorced Brad Pitt in 2005 - started dating in 2008. They split in August, but shortly rekindled their romance.

According to the National Enquirer, Jennifer told John she would only consider them getting back together if he was prepared to set a date to get married.

A source says, "John's finally agreed to marry her - and they're now planning a traditional Greek Orthodox wedding.

"Jen made it clear to John that she was not willing to re-establish the relationship on a boyfriend-girlfriend basis, as it had been since they first hooked up last April.

"And that's when she issued John her ultimatum - that it was time for them to walk down the aisle together.

"Jen told him straight out that she wouldn't put up with any more delays. And since she has always wanted a Greek Orthodox wedding - John said he would happily do anything to make her dream come true.

"Nothing would make Jen happier than to have her own Big Fat Greek Wedding - and John is totally on board."

The source continued, "Jen was exposed to the Greek Orthodox relegion growing up because that's her dad's background.

"Her first marriage, to Brad Pitt, was a huge, extravagant affair, but it was not a church wedding. Jen isn't overly religious, but she wants one now."

John Mayer skips Pete Wentz's art show to avoid Jessica Simpson

John Mayer wants to avoid ex-girlfriend Jessica Simpson at all costs. Jennifer Aniston's main squeeze showed up at Gallery1988 in L.A. to support pal Pete Wentz's art effort "Without You I'm Just Me," but ditched out early upon hearing Jess would be making an appearance. "John showed up early for the public viewing and took pictures with fans, but left before the VIP portion of the evening started," an insider tells us. "He wanted to be there for Pete, but wanted more to avoid the possibility of a dramatic encounter with Jess."

Jennifer Aniston & John Mayer to Romance in the New Year in Mexico

Jennifer Aniston arrived in Los Cabos over the weekend with the good friends, the Arquettes, while John Mayer flew in to the resort town with his brother on Saturday.

The two parties are staying in separate residences, just a short drive apart that are connected by a private beach perfect for long walks at sunset, reports People magazine.

Aniston and Mayer spent their Christmas holidays apart. After promoting her Christmas Day release, Marley & Me, in New York with Mayer by her side, Aniston returned to LA on December 20 and spent Christmas Eve with Courteney Cox, David Arquette and their 4-year-old daughter Coco at Mastro's Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, CA. It was the sixth time in a row that Aniston spent her Christmas with the Arquettes.

Jen & John on the Rocks (Again)?

Jennifer Aniston had a great Christmas present – trouncing ex-hubby Brad Pitt at the box office – but, it seems, her love life may not be so peachy.

Rumours have surfaced again that her on-off relationship with singer John Mayer may be, well, off again.

The pair started dating in summer, but split after a couple of months, only to reunite in November. But the fact they spent Christmas apart has prompted speculation they may be on the rocks again.

After a week in New York spending time with Mayer and promoting her new movie, Marley & Me, Aniston returned to LA on 20 December, leaving John in the Big Apple.

Mayer spent Christmas there with his family, before heading to the West Coast with his brothers Carl and Ben on Boxing Day.

The New York Post got a little bah humbug about it, and suggested Aniston utilised her relationship with Mayer to promote her movie to best effect.

The Post’s Page Six column said: ‘Jennifer Aniston is celebrating her box-office pummelling of ex-hubby Brad Pitt - but she's doing it without her boy toy by her side.

'Aniston toted Mayer around through all her promotional gigs to deter interviewers from focusing on her single status.’

After spending Christmas Eve dining with best friend Courteney Cox, husband David Arquette, and their daughter Coco, Jen received a fabulous Christmas gift when, the next day, her new movie opened to record takings.

But just because Mayer wasn’t there that morning to give her a celebratory kiss, doesn’t necessarily mean the pair are splitting.

Call us old romantics, but we’d like to think there’s more to it than a money-making mission.

Gossip: John: I'm in Love!

John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston are definitely not taking it slow.

In fact, John’s been using the L-word when it comes to his girlfriend. “He won’t stop saying “I love her” and isn’t afraid of the way he feels. He has this totally new aura around him,” his pal tells In Touch.

John may be the one talking the talk, but it seems the feelings are mutual. The couple has been out all over New York this past week, dining together at hotspots like La Esquina, and Italian eatery, Il Mulino.

Blog - Interfaith Baking, Issue 4



interfaith baking, issue 4
12/24 by JM


Hello, and welcome to this, the last posting of holiday cakes.
I'm taking a quick break from a marathon gift wrapping session, so forgive the shorthand...
Remember, life isn't short, but it's small... so enjoy it all.


Andrea shows us the undying spirit of the Jewish faith, in the form of dreidel cookies.


Drina, showing off her skills on a kid face logo.


Joseph knows the key to my heart, and that's marshmallows. Imagine how delicious they all are now, days after this photograph was taken. I'm jealous.


Jilian shares with us a Rockwellian view of winter fun.


Kaitlin and Mason share an image of unrequited love.


Brenda displays the simple beauty of the holidays by way of a Poinsettia cake.


Brandon takes in his own work, a gingerbread John Mayer Trio. Brilliant work, Brandon!


Kelly taps into the spirit of Stop This Train... No better way to enjoy the bridge of the song than during the holidays.


Giovanna keeps it elegant. Cupcakes working together to make the plate a better place.


Madigan shows one of my more pensive poses...


Anna and Adrian bring the latest 'JM' logo to life.


Jenn is original and bakes the face of Rudolph.


Charvella believes I have a better butt than I really do.


David's portrayal of a botched home burglary. (Kidding.)


Pamela loves her dog so much...


... that she celebrated it with a cake. I love this one. I'm laughing right now, but only because it's cute.


Ami celebrates all ways of life.


Molly interprets the guitar cake in a wonderful way.


Amelia shows us the many moods of Santa.


The Sanders Family keeps it real... It is true, while Pino and I are made of Evergreen trees, Steve Jordan is an African American spruce.


Nicole puts loving detail into each cookie.


Amanda is beautiful, as is her cake's play on words.


Marissa and Magladena would like me to get back into the studio. Got a huge laugh out of me.



Katie's work is so unbelievably good that I wondered if it were lifted from the internet, until I read the stockings.


Thank you all for sending me your baked goods... I wish I could have posted them all, but I know that everyone who sent a picture had the opportunity to really connect with the holiday spirit, and I hope that's worth the time and effort.

And I thank you all for helping me to connect with my holiday spirit.

Enjoy every moment.

All my love,
John

Gossip: John Mayer's Under Pressure

He's feeling the heat - and not just from Jen

Having vowed to commit to Jennifer Aniston, John Mayer, 31, has wasted no time in showing his love for her.

The pair even spent Thanksgiving together. But the pressure is getting to him. And it isn’t just coming from Jen, 39, but the rest of her family, too.

‘It was the first time that Jen’s spent the holiday with a man since she was with Brad,’ a source tells Now.

‘They were with John’s parents in Boston this time, just a week after going out to dinner with Jen’s dad and stepmum.

‘Jennifer has always loved Thanksgiving, but she used to associate it a lot with Brad because they always spent it with his family in Missouri. Spending time with her family is cementing their relationship, but her dad’s now in touch quite a lot and John’s feeling the heat.’

John Aniston, 75, has talked openly to the couple about his desire to be a grandfather.

‘He likes John, but he’s made it clear how protective he is of his daughter,' adds our source.

Jen sparked rumours that she may already be expecting when she was pictured hiding her stomach with a bag and sporting what looks suspiciously like a baby bump.

For now, she’s denying the rumour. ‘Jen’s got plans now to go somewhere warm for Christmas with John,’ the source adds. ‘The added bonus for him is that they’ll be away from family pressures.’
