My Last Cake

Bev

The last cake I attempted was in a rectangle cake pan. I took it out of the oven and I put the toothpick in and pulled it out, and it was dry so I knew the cake was done. So I took it out and set it on the stove to cool. I started mixing my frosting. As I’m mixing frosting, I’m watching as the middle of the cake sinks in. Maybe it wasn’t done after all? I don’t know. So I put a big pile of frosting in the middle to even it out. And the cake was too hot so all the frosting melted into this blob. Grandpa came home from work and asked "what's that soaking in the pan?" so that was my last cake. So then I knew I wasn't a baker.

I baked my LAST cake and turned my creativity to writing and producing children’s shows for elementary schools. At least I enjoyed fun and success there!
