The other day, I baked a cake. After I frosted it, I left it on the counter. It was covered, on a cake dish.
The next morning, the cake had mysteriously disappeared. Usually my husband is the culprit. I asked him about, but he didn't have a clue as to where it went. The odd thing was that the entire cake dish had vanished, and there weren't any tell-tale forks and plates in the sink.
I figured it would eventually show up.
It did. Sort of. The cake plate returned to the counter, with only some cake crumbs and chocolate frosting on it.
"Kids!" I said. "What happened to this cake?"
They came downstairs and grinned. "Midnight snack!"
A whole cake? I bet they were wired.
ReplyDeletehope they gave some to Bootsy!
ReplyDeleteNo. Bootsy doesn't have a sweet tooth. If it was tuna fish-flavored, he might have wanted a nibble.
DeleteI thought Schultz would be the culprit. That poor little dog seems to get blamed for everything.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Nope. Schultz doesn't eat cake. He prefers venison.
DeleteMidnight snacking on a cake, awesome.
ReplyDeleteI bet they had fun doing it.
DeleteI was thinking Schultz. They sure must have chowed down.
ReplyDeleteMy stomach is sick just thinking about it.
DeleteI have to admit cake would be a great midnight snack--LOL! ;)
ReplyDeleteI could never sleep if I had that much cake at midnight!
DeleteWow, a whole cake! 👀 How many children do you have again?
ReplyDeleteVisit me @ Life & Faith in Caneyhead. 😉
I have two, but there were also two friends sleeping over.
DeleteWas the cake for them? Perhaps you need a locked cabinet in your pantry.
ReplyDeleteIt was supposed to be our anniversary cake. Didn't quite work out that way. ;)
DeleteThe whole cake?! Wow. Your kids are a lot more daring than I ever was, LOL.
ReplyDeleteThey couldn't resist.
DeleteNow that's the way to have a midnight snack. lol
ReplyDeleteYep. They went all out.
DeleteLoved the read Sherry, a whole cake is unbelieveable.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
I was shocked when I saw it was all gone.
DeleteThat's almost hilarious. I like that they even took the cake stand!
ReplyDeleteIt would have been nice if they would've washed it, too. :)
DeleteAnd SOOOOO nutritious. LOL. If I wasn't such a food Nazi, I could see that happening around here. As is, they know they're dead if they take off with unauthorized sweets.
ReplyDeleteKids can't resist a good cake. ;0)
Delete"Let them eat cake!" :)
ReplyDeleteAnd that's exactly what they did. ;)
DeleteYikes! My little ones have started nabbing food from the fridge and counters...little devious ones for sure:)
ReplyDeleteIt only gets worse.
DeleteI got diabetes just reading that. I wouldn't even be mad, though. Eating an entire cake is kind of impressive.
ReplyDeleteI feel like I've gotten diabetes, too, just from thinking about the amount of sugar they ingested. Very impressive, indeed!
DeleteLOL! They know mom bakes good cake! LOL!
ReplyDeleteYes. Mom definitely bakes good cake!
DeleteYeah, we have a big rat that similarly enjoys midnight feasts. That, and Mr T once slipped into a parallel universe in which he was robbed of two slices of pizza from the box he was bringing home.
