Don't Worry, Look At Cake Wrecks

Ahem hem hem.

Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note

Don't worry,

BE HAPPY.

In every life we have some trouble

But when you worry,
you make it double

Don't worry,
BE HAPPY
Don't worry,
be happy now!

Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo-ooh hoo-hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Don't worry,
BE HAPPY

You swerved in traffic and wrecked your cake?

Got stuck this morning in a big earthquake,

Don't worry,
BE HAPPY

The baker trying to make you frown

He turned your rainbow upside down

Don't worry

Woo-ooh-woo-ooh-woo-ooh-ooh

BE HAPPY

Don't worry
(Ha-ha ha-ha ha-ha)

BE HAPPY.
(Look at me, I'm happy!)

Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo-ooh hoo-hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh this song goes on foreverrrrr
Oooh ooh THAT'S ENOUGH.

And from my other blog, Epbot:

I Dare You To Believe These Cakes Were Made By Professional Bakers

It's "Take Your Kids To Work Day," minion, which is ironic considering how many of you are working from home right now. If anything this year's celebration is more "Take Your Work To Your Kids Day," am I right?

Of course we all know bakers have a long history of bringing their pre-school children to work and arming them with airbrushes:

... piping bags:

... and in some unfortunate cases, whole bottles of food coloring:

Now, look, I am all for parent/child bonding in the workplace. I am!

However.

Shouldn't we be getting a discount on cakes decorated by 6-year-olds? I'm just saying.

Also, I see you bakers out there saving a few bucks by using child labor on your wedding cakes, and it is NOT COOL, dudes.

Egadz. Not cool for anyone.

Welp, happy Take Your Kids To Work Day, minions. And remember:

ALL

OF THESE

CAKES

WERE MADE 

BY PROFESSIONAL ADULTS.

So teach your kids some art today, okay? For all our sakes.

Thanks to Samantha B., Ryan E., Melissa H., Erin C., Rachel, Samantha, Lisa S., Erin G., Leah Z., Richard L., & Calleigh for taking us all to school.
