Sunday Sweets GOES SHOPPING!!

With everyone in a shopping frenzy this weekend, I figured hey, why not make it a FEEDING frenzy... of shopping! Only, you know, in cake.

(This, uh, sounded better in my head.)


So, let's say you're shopping for a sweet Vera Bradley purse:

BAM! That's totally cake!

So you'll have to keep looking.
But still. Amazing, right?

 

Adults can be hard to buy for, but I love shopping for little kids:

(By Mark Lie)

Yes, cake! I think only the bottom rockers are real wood.

 

(By Splendor Cakes)

Pew pew!

 

And the most perfect iPod delivery system:

(By Sweet Little Treat)

D'AWWWW.

 

Of course, we big kids like our toys, too:

(By Little Millie's)

 

(By Cakes by Angela Morrison)

 

(By For the Love of Cake)

 

It helps if the person you're buying for has a hobby, of course. Like baking. Or storing cooking utensils in fancy jewelry bags:

But it's hard to go wrong with a little bling for the ladies. Or a LOT of bling.

(By Yener's Way)

 

And don't let the fellas fool you; they like their bling, too:

(By Ron-Ben Israel Cakes)

 

Still, we all know the holidays are all about the GADGETS, am I right?

(By Sweet Jeelees)

Although I still refuse to recognize "phablet" as a word. I JUST WON'T DO IT.

 

Well, here's wishing you every shopping triumph this season, my friends. Oh, and remember to get something for everyone in the family, k?

Happy Sunday!

(I also feel duty-bound to remind you that Wreck the Halls, my holiday book, makes a perfect stocking stuffer!)

If Cake Croutons Become A Thing, I WANT CREDIT

It's Thanksgiving here in America, my friends, but ALL of us could stand to be more thankful for the little things in life.

Like turkeys giving birth to pilgrim hats:

 

And old Halloween flotsam:

 

For floating scarecrow heads:

 

Desperate store managers trying to get rid of old stock:

 

And spurting turkey cannons:

 

For turkeys with exploding butts:

("My bad.")

 

And sad pilgrim heads:

 

For goobles:

 

And gobles:

 

And all those many, many Thanks Given:

Not to mention all the bakers who actually think it's spelled that way.

 

For giant salads with cake croutons:

(I dunno. But I like it.)

 

And for knowing that, while you can't polish a turd, you CAN stick a paper tail in it and call it a turd-key:

 

But most of all, lets be thankful for our friends, our family, and for this guy:

Because, c'mon, look at him.

LOOK AT HIM.

Happy Thanksgiving, wrecky minions! Now, go have some pie.

 

Also giving thanks for Shannon R., Marah S., Lucretia J., Chris H., Sabrina K., Lee V., Sarah S., Juanita G., Pamela T., Christopher F., James L., Tanya D., & Diane G. Gooble 'til ya drooble, guys.
