More Cliché Than A Cake Wreck

It's time to let sleeping dogs lie, to grab the bull by the horns, and to maybe leave the rest of the animals out of this, 'cuz now my cats are looking nervous.

 

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

So clearly this baker hates you.

 

When life gives you lemons:

...ask life, "but what's with the parsley?"

If the shoe fits...

This, too, shall pass.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again:

Because, after all:

Practice makes perfect.

Perfect.

 

Thanks to Nathan J., Megan J., Phreedom, Howard G., Susan R., & Anony M. for going against my express wishes and beating that dead horse. Will no one think of the animals?!

So there I was, laughing at how B-Day sounds like bidet in my head and I wondered if Amazon had anything funny and bidet related and well…

And from my other blog, Epbot:

Surprise! IT A WRECK!

Brenna P. writes,

"Since it was my husband’s birthday last week, I thought it would be a fun idea to get a birthday cake that would also reveal the gender of our baby due this summer."

 

[nodding vigorously] Excellent, excellent. WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH THIS PLAN.

[making popcorn]
[pulling up beanbag chair]

Ok, Brenna, please.

DO GO ON.

"I asked that the bakery put blue frosting in the middle of the cake, with the intention of cutting it open to reveal that it’s a boy."

Good thinking. Solid plan. I like it.

 

And... ?

TA-DAAAA!!

Note the lovely schmear of blue frosting right in the "middle" of the cake, just like Brenna asked.

(The whole "It a ..." misspelling was just the metaphorical cherry on top.)

 

Ah, but I know what you're thinking: what color icing was on the inside?

Silly wreckie; there WAS no icing on the inside, haha!

(C'mon, now, how long have you been reading this blog? I mean, REALLY.)

Oh hey, if you like surprises but hate people, I have JUST THE THING:

The Original Spider Prank Box

The plastic spider leaps out as you slide the door open, and as the recipient of a similar box I can assure you: this thing's a real scream. Perfect for nosy roommates, co-workers, your kids... hey, I'm not here to judge. :p
