When Cakes Need Copy Editors
People often bemoan the fact that we don't have spell check for cakes, but as every writer knows, spell check doesn't catch everything.
After all, this IS spelled correctly:
I once participated in a Rock-A-Thon when I was a teenager: a group of us rocked in rocking chairs for eight hours straight to raise money for charity. Now, if I'd had the option to rock a thong, instead?
Um. Yeah, I would've stuck with the rocking chair.
They wish, baker. They wish.
Calling your boss "sexy" is a risky endeavor at the best of times - but it certainly doesn't help when the baker forgets a letter in "sexiest."
But hey, it's just a tiny mistake. The rest of the spelling is perfect!*
Oops.
And finally, when Steve and Marcus were planning their joint birthday party, they went with a Back to the Future inspired "Enchantment Under the Sea" theme - naturally.
One question, guys: Why wasn't I invited?
They ordered a cake with "Enchantment Under the Sea" written on it - and when the baker misspelled "enchantment" on the order form, Marcus immediately began hoping for a Cake Wreck.
Well, they did get one, but not in the way he expected. See, apparently the baker mistook "the sea" to mean the cake's deco pack, and...well...
You must admit: as wrecks go, this is kinda awesome.
Thanks to Ashli D., Ann Marie P., Erika T., Shea, & Marcus H. for being awl-around grate guise.
