Pass Fail

Ok, bakers, you have one job. ONE JOB. Ready?

Here goes.

This plastic piece has football lacing on it, so -  still with me? Yes? - so just put it on a cake, like so:

...and voilà! Instant football.

Now, go find a brown cake, and put the piece of plastic on it. That's it. That's all. You literally cannot screw this up. 

Annnnnd .... go.

What.

What are you doing.

Seriously.

TRY AGAIN.

Whatever Happens, Let's Be Prefessionals

I'm pretty sure today is one of bakers' least favorite holidays ever, if only because it's so stinking hard to spell:

(I admit it: I had to double check that there aren't two Fs in "professional.")

(Just to be clear: there aren't.)

"Proffional"

"Profissional"

I like how this baker just omits the word entirely:

...and yet still falls down on "Adminiestrations." Heh.

I'm curious to know how THIS happened:

SO CLOSE.

Still, you've got to hand it to the baker: at least "professionals" is right! After all, that's a tough word to spell. Just ask a team of editors, proofreaders, graphic designers, and one sheepish cake blogger:

(Just in case anyone out there is still wondering why there's a sticker on the cover of

Wreck the Halls :D )

And finally, though today used to be known as Secretary's Day, you should never call it that. And if you're a boss of the male persuasion with an assistant of the female persuasion, then you should especially never call it that, misspell "Day" and then pair it with a Betty Boop figurine:

 Don Draper called, and he wants a glass of rye. Chop chop, darlin'.

Thanks to Al D., Nancy P., Mary P., Jennifer C., Dana F., Ellery T., & Piper S. for all the assistants!
