Let Them Eat Cake!











Kayli is always asking me if I want to come to “her party”. I’ll say “Oh, you’re having a party?” “Yeah” she says, “You wanna come?” “Sure” I say, “What will we eat at your party?” “I have chocolate cake, otay?” she says. “Wow, that sounds like a great party! I’ll be there.” So, the other night, I suggested that we go out to the “place with the big fountain” (The Legends) after dinner. I said I knew about a restaurant where we could order chocolate cake. Well, she was immediately “on board”. She said “Chocolate cake? It’s my party?” “Sure, it can be your party.” So, as we drive into the parking lot of the legends, there were cars and people everywhere. Kayli says “Wow, aaall these people come my party!” I chuckle and say “You bet! Isn’t it great?” We ordered the huge slab of chocolate cake at the restaurant and Kayli ate one bite of cake and most of the whipped cream. Even though she talks alot about chocolate cake, she's never had it before. She just knows that on Dora the Explorer, Dora made a chocolate cake for her mom for mothers day and it was yummy. The "idea" of having chocolate cake was as thrilling as actually sampling it. These simple pleasures are so much fun! Now we have enough leftover cake for an army. Anyone hungry?
