How to Make a Cake

November 28th, 2009

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.

How to Make a Cake
1. Light oven; get out utensils and ingredients. Remove blocks and toy autos from table. Grease pan, crack nuts.
2. Measure 2 cups of flour; remove little Johnny’s hand from flour; wash flour off him. Remeasure flour.
3. Put flour, baking soda, salt in sifter. Get dustpan and brush up pieces of bowl Johnny knocked on floor. Get another bowl. Answer doorbell.
4. Return to kitchen. Remove Johnny’s hand from bowl. Wash Johnny. Grease another pan. Answer phone. Return. Remove 1/4 salt from greased pan. Look for Johnny. Grease another pan. Answer phone.

5. Return to kitchen and find Johnny. Remove his hands from bowl. Take up greased bowl and find layer of nutshells in it. Head for Johnny who flees, Knocking bowl off table. Wash kitchen floor, table, walls, Call baker. Lie down.

    What a joke that get a good chuckle out of me! I think remove Johnny from the beginning would avoid this disaster. :)

    That’s cute! This is why I avoid backing around my kids. Their hands are always dirty.

    The cake must look and taste fab, that kind of culinery masterpiece would last about 2 seconds in this house. Look forward to your future mouth watering posts.
