I love that the store-bought cake was $3 and the cocoa was $5.
I also love that you called me about what to do and after getting past that...we continued talking for an hour---when you were in a such time crunch.
-I sure know how to monopolize ones time to fit my needs don't I?
Is there any of the original cake left? Mmmmmm, crumbly, hot, mushy, set on fire cake .... yummmmm.
Lucky lucky Christian
Sadly, Marty, I threw the "brick" away.
And Daisy, as you can see, I had more than enough time to finish by 11:00 a.m. with the phone conversation. All part of the plan.
Brick? That's not how I would have described it. It looked more like a pile of _______.
