We've got cake!

When tragedy strikes - strike back with cake! How can you worry when your kitchen smells so wonderful and you can hardly wait to frost and eat your new masterpiece warm from the oven. So many wonderful childhood memories involve cake, especially my grandmother and I whipping up some favorites like coconut layer cake or devils food with fudge frosting or strawberry layer cake. YUM!

When I was a teenager, I discovered carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. My mother bakes me one each year on my birthday. Life is definitely better with carrot cake and cream cheese frosting. I'll go back to worrying when the cake is gone.
