What the What Continued

Wherein the Author Treats a Cake Like a Lady

A little more about this cake

from this bakery.

As my lovely companion and I made our way to the bakery after a long morning of trapezing, I had plans for that piece of cake. Deep, dark and slightly disgusting plans. I was planning on eating that cake in a way that would make aforementioned lovely companion embarrassed to be near me.

In short, I was going to facefuck that cake.

But one bite in and I knew: this was no one night stand of a snack. This was true love. I wanted to make that cake an honest woman.

Invitations to the wedding will be going out soon.

One Last Recipe

So, I know that last post was all drink recipes BUT directly after I wrote it I headed off for a (very!) quick lunch break and picked up this cucumber fizzy thing that was so refreshing I could hardly stand it. I'm totally whinging it on this recipe, but if it's anywhere close to the original it is beyond delicious and delightful.
