you take the cake

I have always had a strong affinity for cake. Believe it or not, sometime around midnight on the night before my second birthday my parents found me on the kitchen table enjoying my birthday cake caveman style, by the handful.   It was waiting patiently in the dark for it's timely debut during a round of 'happy birthday' and a couple of candles, unfortunately for my mum, I had different plans for it's destiny.

It's a shame that I can't remember how I managed to escape my bed at two years of age and climb on top of the kitchen table to devour my celebratory cake like some baby cake ninja, but I do however remember the excitement.  A beautifully made cake still evokes the same wonder in me that it did as a child.    

So it stands to reason that when I saw these beauties over at this darling bloggers site, my heart went all a flutter...

Nothing says "I did it!", "Thank you" or "Best of Luck", like a piece of cake! I say forget waiting for your birthday, graduation or other Hallmarked day and have a little moment with yourself to pat yourself on the back for just being you!
