Cakes are amazing. Is there anything they can't do?

You should have a look at the Cake Wrecks blog to see the horror of professional cakes gone bad...

He did my aunt's wedding cake (she lives in Baltimore and I guess she knew him before the show). It was beautiful, but of course, didn't taste good because fondant tastes like playdough.

Two minutes before RIGHT NOW I was trying to sneak a piece of cheese past Norton because I wanted it and there wasn't enough to share. He caught me, and I had to give him a Lil' Smokie (small sausage).

That dog is spoiled rotten.

Cat - pondering about step seven...
There's a B. Kliban cartoon of a guy sitting in a chair, festooned in cats. He's telling his friend "I got a cat. It was okay. I liked it. So I got another, and another, and another..."

My maximum has been three, with none at the moment. I once shared a house where there were eight cats and a dog (because one of my housemates rescued feral cats). her husband commented "At any time, I can clap my hands and yell, and at least four cats will suddenly stop doing something they knew they shouldn't be doing..."

Getting a kitten also revives the older cat's energy and playfulness. Before I got Puce, I used to call Bob "la grosse pantoufle" (the big slipper (?)), but when the kitten started to attack and jump aroud, he got his youth back. Now it's been three years since I got Puce, I'm thinking a new kitten could be fun. Bf is completely opposed though

I know!! Why is that? It's made of sugar and water, it should be good!

That's potentially me. Potentially.

One of my sisters has a 'ahem' she can do that brings everyone nearby to a complete stop. I typically hide when she does that. Not that I have done anything to upset, moi ?, her, but that she is upset and it is best to take cover.

No, she doesn't throw anything.

She lifts one eyebrow and Glares ! ( In a sort of Loud Way, without yelling one word.)

Only once has she directed that at me. I never want to be subjected to that again. Doesn't mean I don't tease here once in a while, just that I have learned to watch for the Warning Signs.

If she adds her Wolf Smile, things are bad, very bad. 'Tis best to surrender immediately.

Moaning in the V and R thread about catching a cold and at the same time celebrating my brother's new contract with the Bengals. 3 more years and a pretty hefty pay increase. It was a tough year for him so I'm glad something has worked out for him.
