You Get What You Pay For

I'm with the she's lucky to have gotten ANY cake after those comments.
1) Its free
2) Its what you ASKED for
3) Its free

Cake senses tingling!

Yes. I have predicted the appearance of cake several days in advance before.

I just feel bad, you know. I mean, the cake she DID get was delicious, but the cake I kept was even better. Everyone knows the tears of a bride are the best spice of all.

I'm thinking Cartman here. Heh.

The only thing I can think of that would've made that better would've been to set fire to it in front of her, and I bet cake doesn't burn very well.

God that was beautiful, Cookiesaur. Beautiful.

See, this is why you should support gay marriage. NO BRIDES. Well, or two brides, but they'll probably just cancel out.

[Tireana Dorcha]

My fiance agrees with you on the brides and cakes. When he was working as an Assistant Pastry Chef many moons ago, they had this one bride come in and change her cake design at least six times. All within a week of the wedding. And we're talking complete overhauls, they couldn't keep anything from the previous designs, not even the cake flavor. The chefs finally got pissed off enough that they decided that revenge is a dessert best served...salty. They changed the sugar content to a salt content instead.

Best way to go about it? Probably not. But, damn, did they feel justified.

so I have to know-

Was the raccoon happi with his slice of cake?

[MannersMakethMan]

How generous of you! I'd have made the fee 75 or 100%. Maybe even more. Nobody insults my cooking and gets away with it, however accurate it might be, especially not when I'm doing this as a favour!

I applaud your actions, and laugh hysterically at Bridezilla!

[Cookiesaur]

The raccoon did not, in fact, appreciate his (or her?) cake; maybe it was too sweet. I left it a raw egg instead, which was accepted. I'd be offended, but what the hell does a raccoon know about moist cake anyway? Watched me suspiciously from the edge of the yard. I'll take the fact that he hasn't given me rabies yet as a sign of gratitude, though.

[calulu]

If you have mockingbirds in the neighborhood they will appreciate the cake properly. They love baked goods.

[BethB]

Dang! I want some cake now! Frosting-y goodness....mmmmm... Anyways, you are much too generous with giving her any of the cake. I would have gone with the "don't like it, I'm not giving it to you. So there. Now out. out you go."

My mom had a pretty cake at her reception(about 3 mos after wedding). White and purple 3-tier cake with Precious moments figures on top. And it was tasty too. Had 3 pieces.

Either/or. The important part is explain exactly why you think it's such a special story. Read over the criteria laid out in the War Stories forum. If you don't say why, we won't consider it. After all, you can't be bothered, why should we?

This story is a classic!

I would have kept 50% of the cake for myself, and then shoved the remaining tiers in her face!

Maybe that would be taking it too far...
