Cake Wreck (Almost)

I know it is irrational to harbor intense feelings of dislike for a cake but the one I am working on for tomorrow about brought me to my knees.  I am making a full sheet cake with a layer of chocolate and a layer of white.  I started to frost it and the sides started peeling off (picture the face melting scene in Poltergeist only with cake).  I cursed loudly and repeatedly then put the thing in the refrigerator--a self imposed time out.  Luckily Ron saved the day again.  I will have to get more frosting to finish the project but he managed to shore up the once structurally unsound delicacy.

My sister had a John Deere cake mold that she was hoping we could use for the party.  We decided to do a rich double chocolate brownie with chocolate chunks.  It is very, very heavy.  No concerns with structural integrity on this one.
