And another one moves on for career advancement! Sometimes you have to move on from an academic research environment to something less assured but more fruitful. That is what our 12 year or so colleague has decided to do! So to honor her association and to wish her well we had a cake hour with some refreshments, of course, a few parting gifts, of course, and a Brown gear makeover, of course!
 |
| Gifts and food - someone must be leaving! |
The cakes were from Wegman's which has a very nice bakery section, at least the one in Westwood, MA does. There are a number of staple items that are quire good and today we went with the raspberry mousse cake and the fruit tart.

The cake has raspberry mousse with a thin layer of vanilla cake on the top and the bottom. The top layer is covered with a glaze and then fresh fruit. It is light, refreshing, tasty and perfect for the season.
 |
| Quite light and quite delicious! |
The fruit tart was the classic configuration with the layer of pastry topped by pastry cream, and fresh fruit in a decorative pattern. The is also a great choice for the warmer months and is of very good quality.

| And here is our departing honoree! |
To send her on her way we gave some flowers, a Brown Med School cup for future cake hours wherever, and a stylish Brown logo pullover in the favored color of red! This makeover was another success. To finish off we did some obligatory photos with close colleagues and collaborators and of course the usual parting shot!
