How to Make a Cake
I found this in one of my cookbooks and I thought everyone needed a good laugh for the beginning of the holiday season. Anyone who has kids should enjoy this one. Just remember to relax this holiday season; it’s not about the money or gifts, it’s about the bringing together of family and friends.
