Phil Attempts to Bake a Cake
Phil called me up last weekend and exclaimed that he had just made the world’s ugliest birthday cake and was glad to know that his mother’s love would over look it. I was curious what the cake looked like, so I made him take a short video of it. In my mind, I had expected it to look a lot worse. I think Phil is right, though, he should definitely stick to computers because cakes sure aren’t his thing – even if they taste really good.

What! That’s not bad at all!! I was expecting crooked with burned bits and a CakeWreck icing job!

I will admit that it looks better in the video. What you can’t see is the clumps of cake that are mixed in with the icing. When Phil went to ice it, the top layer of cake stuck to the icing and got mixed in. He tried to cover it with more icing, but it only made it worse. Also, the cake split in half when he tried to transport it across town – the top half slid off. Phil said his entire family laughed at him as they ate it.

Probably tastes nice even if it resembles something the dog deposited.

@ Dogbait – At least I wasn’t the only one to think that. 🙂

LOL-for a boy he did a pretty good job…What about its taste? 😉

@ Marta – I personally did not eat it, but the word on the street is that it tasted fine. I didn’t eat any because it was a calorie offender.

LMAO – my own mother can’t bake for shit. She can cook, but she’s hopeless in the dessert dept. I love Phil’s commentary. Happy belated b-day
