Covering the Bases

The Cake:
From a place in nearby ambler, called Anne's Cake Pan, where a mother of seven, who never anticipated becoming a baker creates beautiful and delicious cakes. We sampled 5 different bakeries, and this woman and her now grown children make the moistest vanilla cake, and buttercream icing so incredible you could die from it. And, they have a person whose job it is to smooth out the buttercream so it looks like fondant, which is essential, because, although pretty, fondant is not nearly as yummie.

In the end, the cake choice was:
Vanilla cake
Lemon buttercream filling
Vanilla buttercream icing

fabulous.

The Vacation:
Too short.

The Driving:
Too long

Work:
Almost over. I couldn't be more excited. It's been pretty painful. My favorite children (yes, I choose favorites. And I'm pretty obvious about it, too) are all leaving, and the children who could have been in the Omen are all sticking around to make my life miserable.

Consequences I Wish I Could Enforce:
If Number-One pees her pants again, I'm quitting
If Blondie eats the shit he picked out of his nose one more time, I'll call him out in front of everyone
If Goldilocks pinches me again, I'll pinch her back
If the Fairy eats any more dirt, I'll force feed him more
If the Goblin cries about not having the "yellow one" when we give shit out, I won't give him anything ever again
If the Waa Waa cries one more time about one more stupid thing, I'll sing Mariah Carey loudly over his misery until he stops
