happy zombie christ day
so i wanted breakfast today. woke up hungry because i’m sick and when i’m sick, i eat constantly. my roommate and i go to the store to get some eggs and what with being easter tomorrow, I decided that i wanted to decorate a cake for her. I haven’t decorated a cake in like 4 years, but I think I did an ok job. she did the flowers in the middle of the sides, and put the chocolate frosting on, and put most of the cinnamon dots on, i did the rest (obviously, i mean, no girl can produce writing that bad).

So what did I learn for this whole thing?
- it’ll cook in the normal amount of time if you put it on the lower rack in the oven
- making leaves is easier when the frosting is softer
- making flowers is easier when the frosting is hella stiff
- don’t be a dick to your friends over a cake, especially when you’re making the cake for them. it makes the gift lose its value (sorry strych9)
- different types of boxed cake mix have different directions, so RTFM
learn from these mistakes, bake a cake for your friends, and have a happy zombie christ day.
