I Dare You To Believe These Cakes Were Made By Professional Bakers

It's "Take Your Kids To Work Day," minion, which is ironic considering how many of you are working from home right now. If anything this year's celebration is more "Take Your Work To Your Kids Day," am I right?

Of course we all know bakers have a long history of bringing their pre-school children to work and arming them with airbrushes:

... piping bags:

... and in some unfortunate cases, whole bottles of food coloring:

Now, look, I am all for parent/child bonding in the workplace. I am!

However.

Shouldn't we be getting a discount on cakes decorated by 6-year-olds? I'm just saying.

Also, I see you bakers out there saving a few bucks by using child labor on your wedding cakes, and it is NOT COOL, dudes.

Egadz. Not cool for anyone.

Welp, happy Take Your Kids To Work Day, minions. And remember:

ALL

OF THESE

CAKES

WERE MADE 

BY PROFESSIONAL ADULTS.

So teach your kids some art today, okay? For all our sakes.

Thanks to Samantha B., Ryan E., Melissa H., Erin C., Rachel, Samantha, Lisa S., Erin G., Leah Z., Richard L., & Calleigh for taking us all to school.

Here's a workbook for you homeschooling parents: apparently it's fun AND educational:

And from my other blog, Epbot:

Pretty As A Bow Tie On A Beaver

It's Princess week, minions, but Disney is closed. [SOB] To quote Westley from Princess Bride, "There's a shortage of perfect brea.... [remembers there are kids present]...kfast boxes in the world. Yep. Perfect breakfast boxes. Plus we're short on princesses!"

Not to worry, though, because who needs official princesses when we can make our own?

First we'll need the two most important parts of any princess: a brain, and a tiara.

OH LOOK

Lucky for us the brain tiara also comes with a.... thermometer? Baby rattle? Bottle opener? Minion smacker? Cat poker? Wait, I've got it: It's a head scratcher. Eh? EH? ::taps temple knowingly::

Next, every princess needs a castle.

Excuse me. I said, she needs a CASTLE.

A CASTLE 

....

Fine, we'll go with that.

Or she needs a tall tower to be locked in, where she'll be forced to cook her own food, download TikTok, and learn how to use Zoom.

Perfect.

Now let's add in that all-important animal sidekick. Can't have a princess without one of those!

I shall call him Flopsy.

Flopsy is a great conversation starter. Why, you won't believe how many people will compliment a princess on her beaver.

And finally, for that crowning touch, we just need a magical landscape to frolic through:

Aw yeah.

COMMENCE FROLICKING.

Thanks to Anony M., Frog C., Victoria D., Luke K., Michelle & Fred G., Kate B., & Jessica C. for the extra fun guys.
