Cake?

I like to look at Cake Wrecks because it's hilarious. No one's perfect, so it's fun to laugh at ourselves. The many grocery store sheet cakes that make it to the site remind me of when I worked in the floral department of a grocery store and fulfilled orders for arrangements. I had been given no floral arranging training. I didn't know what I was doing. Fortunately I did have a penchant for crafting and, at the time, a few years of art school under my belt.

But the site also has links to very skilled cake decorators. I like to go to those, too. They make me imagine a life where I am baking cakes, sculpting flowers out of sugar, and carefully selecting plates to put them on. Perhaps it's not something I want to do every day, but it sounds fun.

I've got my birthday coming up. I think I might go to the nearest grocery store and put in an order. Perhaps I'll ask for a roller skate on it. Or maybe a basket with puppies in it. Yeah, that sounds good.
