Your wish = my command.

 

"Ok, but I'm adding these decorative scrolly bits to show you what an awesome decorator I am."

 

"Oh, I'm getting the picture alright." [winkwink]

 

"Hey, you know those times when you should be seeing red, but instead you feel kinda blue?"

"Yeah, me neither."

 

"Fortunately for both of us, I don't have to understand your weird code language to follow orders:"

Mine?
Mine?
Mine?

 

Thanks to Kevin B., Eugene K., Tiffany K., Carrie B., & Melissa O., who, of all my wreckporters, are literally the most recent.

P.S. Here's a giggle for my coffee-loving friends:

"My Four Moods" Dragon Tee

:D
It comes in both Men's & Women's cuts, plus a bunch more colors.

Could switching to GEICO really save you 15% or more on car insurance?

...

Do bakeries in Florida have a problem with lizards?

"S'alright.  'E's probably just restin'."

 

Thanks to Anony M. for finding a wreck my cats would LOVE.

P.S. OK, so no one wants to see a lizard on a cake.
But how about a Bearded Dragon on a blog?

Pogo the Plush Bearded Dragon

Pogo is a whopping 21 inches long, so I hear he's great for snuggling.

I know they keep pushing back the retirement age, but this is ridiculous:

Worst. Retirement package. Ever.

 

Clearly this "celabrate" you speak of refers to an activity with which I am unfamiliar.

 

Ever notice what a difference an "e" can make?

Ouch.

 

Or the lack of proper spacing?

Woohoo! Uric acid-induced arthritis! Yeah!

 

At first glance I thought this next cake said "gobbles," which you must admit would have been perfect on an edible baby cake.

Of course, if you say it fast enough this actually almost sounds right.

And, poof!
Just like that, I got you all to say the word "Gobbless" under your breath.

BOW BEFORE YOUR PUPPET MASTER!

Bwah-ha-haa-haaa!!!

Ahem.

 

And finally, a reminder of the importance of commas:

"The first 102rd moms were just so-so, but number 103th? BINGO."

 

Thanks to Bethany V., Clare P., Jason T., Angela L., Erin L., & Rachel M., and whoever first put an "rd" superscript over a number two. (Seriously, just try to pronounce "2rd" without giggling. Go on.)

P.S. In case this post wasn't painful enough:

Exceptionally Bad Dad Jokes

There are a lot of "dad joke" books out there, but this one has awesome ratings AND the word "spiffing" on the cover, so it's a clear winner.

Hey girl.
Today's post is dedicated to you.

By I Dream of Jeanne Cakes

That's right, to you and every other chocolate-loving chocoholic out there who can't quit craving the sweet stuff and have long since polished off the last 3 Musketeers bar in your kids' Halloween candy stash.

You know who you are.

So come along. Let's take a ride on the gentle waves of chocolate's sweet caress:

By Sweet Gems Cakes

 

Let's set sail on the decadent seas of sensory seduction.

Photography by Julie Mikos; baker unknown.

Smell the chocolate. Feeeeel the chocolate. Taste the chocolate. BE the chocolate.

 

Let chocolate's smooth tendrils of tantalization entwine you.

By Layers

 

Embrace the chocolate! Let its sweet siren song wash over you and take you to a place where a rose is just a rose, unless it's a chocolate rose...

By Baking Arts

Because then it's like, a way better rose.

 

Unless of course, it's a painted chocolate rose. With ruffles. And twirly things.

By The Paul Bradford Sugarcraft School

Twirly things of temptation!

 

So surrender! Surrender to chocolate's rich and creamy charms!

Let the fermented bean pods of the cacao tree seep into your soul as you... um... wait.

By Cakes by Occasion

OK, so maybe that's not the sexiest description of chocolate you've ever heard. Sorry.
I'm running out of adjectives here.

 

Bottom line, chocolate is pretty much perfection.

By Wilton

Like this cake. Such perfection, I'm having trouble believing it's real. Look at those razor sharp corners!

 

And the only way this curvaceous cake could be better is if there were even more of it:

By Premier Pastry

 

I can't spot a single thing wrong here, either:

By The Pastry Studio

I'm just dotty for it! (The kids still say 'dotty,' right?)
(No? Well, I'm not very hip. My pajamas have cats on them.)

 

Of course, sometimes even the most fervent chocolate lover needs a break:

By Margaret's French Bakery

Like this. This is the perfect chocolate break.

Who could resist a cake literally paved in chocolate?
I can't. You can't. Don't even try.

 

Anyway, if you love chocolate so much, why don't you marry it? I think you should.

By Kanya Hunt

If only for the cake.

Hope your Sunday’s extra sweet!
