I visited the bakery one day (there was no "store-front" and I was uninvited) late after fishing for trout in a stream nearby (too much detail right?). The baker was there and I explained that I just wanted to tell someone there how much I loved their cake. He was barrel-shaped and had a warm and friendly manner, along with a heavy German accent. He welcomed me in, gave me a tour of his bakery, described the whole baking process and the tour included the rum stock that he used in the cake. I won't tell you what we had to eat and what we drank next.

Even though I am 5.9 being barrel shaped is in my near future if I continue to live like this.
