The Far Side of Cake, Vol. 12

As the bees closed in, Pooh and Tigger realized they'd made a horrible mistake.

"'Put a few leaves on it,' she said. 'It looks too plain,' she said. 'You've got to learn to fill the space,' she said! Well FINE."

Maurice was famous for being the only butterfly who could successfully do "the worm."

Which was handy, since he couldn't fly for sh*t.

There was a long, uncomfortable silence.

The Hello Kitties had, at last, run out of hellos.

When Ghosts Wish Each Other Happy Birthday:

Elmo looked around. Had anyone seen?
But no, the road was deserted.
Plus he was late for Abby's party, and had no time for paperwork or prying questions.

Whistling cheerfully, Elmo turned the wheel and drove on into the night.

Thanks to Cheryl N., Jodee R., Katie M., Lana R., Mary Jane, & Mary K. for keeping it far out.

P.S. Speaking of Hello Kitty...

Hello, Bad Kitty.

Sunday Sweets Would Like A Word

Tomorrow is National Dictionary Day, folks, so what better way to use our words than with beautiful cakes?

After all, cakes can say so much.

They can talk about what's important:

(By Mea Sculpture Cake Design)

Share what's in your heart:

(By Nashville Sweets)

...and do it in any language!

(By Le Dolci)

(My love language is cake. WHAT.)

Maybe it's your favorite saying:

(By Queen City Bakeshop)

Or a snippet of poetry:

(By M Cakes Sweets)

Or a favorite childhood story:

(By Sugar and Spice)

Maybe you know all you really need:

(By Mely's Cake Design)

Or you want to get dramatic with a single letter:

(By Mark Joseph Cakes)

And if you can't choose just one word (or two or ten)?

(By Chatter Cakes)

This works.

In fact, sometimes there's nothing more beautiful than blocks of handwritten text:

(By Lovely Cakes)

Look how romantic with all these great textures:

(By Yuma Couture Cakes)

Feathers and stone. I like it.

But let's end with something seasonally appropriate: an homage to Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas:

(By Cupcakes By Louise)

For it is plain to see,

These cakes are Sweet as they can be!

Happy Sunday, everyone!
