I want

[Cheyenne]

to have my cake and eat it, too.

Why can't I?

Because there's never enough cake all at once, Chey.

The way I figure it, pick one, relish your cake the way you've chosen it, and don't regret your choice.

Oddly enough, more cake comes along later.

 

[calypso_21]

I can't think of one good reason why you can't...go ahead...need a fork?

 

[KillerMuffin]

Because once you eat your cake, you don't have it anymore. So give up on the whole keeping it idea, it goes bad anyway. Put in a standing order at a good bakery.

Just don't leave your cake out in the rain.

I think the whole cake/eat it thing is a Puritan Anti Pleasure League conspiracy to keep all the cake in the hands of the elitest cake loving snobs who only cut the cake and give me more than just a little bit when she gets behind closed doors and she lets her hair hang down and she lets me know that I'm a man.

Buttercream frosting on fingertips.

Licking the batter as it drips off the spoon.

I want to have it.

And eat it, too.

Hmmmm... so far, that post is the closest to actually being helpful to me.

 

[LukkyKnight]

If you don't have it, how can you possibly eat it?

 

[JazzManJim]

I could have been more concise.

Eat the cake.

Enjoy the cake thoroughly.

Wait for more cake.

(Who knew I could be helpful today? I'm all full of surprises!!)

You're always helpful, JMJ. You must have been an eagle scout, right?

ROFL! I dropped out shortly after I made First Class.

Oddly enough it was because I got tired of the politics.

'Cause pie is better.

And Lit doesn't bother you? Damn, your troop must have had some pretty intense political discussions. We just tied knots.

And Chey, the only advice I have is: When you do get some cake, don't just eat it, eat the hell out of it.

Nah. Lit is a piece of cake, so to speak.

My old trop was a hotbed of favoritism, nepotism, constant power struggles, whining aboutvarious events not going to folks' likings, etc.

It was enough to put me off of it.

Lit, on the other hand, is a walk in park compared to that.

I'm sure if you made something like Brussel Sprouts Cake, it will be all yours, no problemo. Eat it up, yum.

 

[AreYourLightsOn]

Betcha could if.....

you really wanted to. From what I have learned about you, tenacity was not one of your short suits.

 

[lisalove]

If you don't have it, how can you possibly eat it?

And furthermore, if you can't eat it, what the hell are you supposed to do with it?

 

[Harbinger]

Just HAVE it.

There's another one for you.

I'm trying. I really am.

 

[estevie]

I'd like some cake. Even cupcakes will do. Carrot cake is my favorite but any cake will do. Except that brussel sprout cake. Yuckypoo!

 

[lisalove]

Just HAVE it.
There's another one for you.

I suppose. Just don't leave it out in the rain, cuz ya know it took so long to bake it.

Thanks, you're very kind and giving. I'm gonna go hide in the corner now, all this attention is scaring me.

And I know I'll never have the recipe again. Oh no.

 

[Purrde Flower]

Too much cake ruins the desier to have more.
