Weekend Assignment

Favorite Dessert - Cake, or Pie?

Oh, writing this will probably add the recently lost 5 lbs. back onto my thighs, but this is important and must be said.

When it comes to which is best - cake or pie - there is NO contest.  If you want something of substance, something you can sink your teeth into and get the best of every world there is - the clear choice is cake.

I'm not talking just any cake (s).  I'm talking chocolate cake, with gooey frosting, three shades of chocolate and texture so smooth that you can't believe it's not butter.

Oh, how i miss it (them) - my famous 14 layer chocolate cake with boiled fudge frosting, that you can eat layer by layer by layer, etc.  And black forest cake - with all that creamy icing and whipped cream and just enough cherries on top - something you can dip your fork into, pop in your mouth and forget sex ever existed.  And carrot cake, with cream cheese frosting, heavy texture - and it's even healthy.  It has a vegetable in it.  And if you're looking for a religious experience?  Home made pineapple cake with seven minute frosting.

Pie just can't offer you that - it's like..one dimensional whereas cake has all those..layers... to it.  A new taste sensation in every bite - but if I had to choose a pie that would do in the absence of my favorite dessert, it would be sweet potato, with a large dollop of whipped cream on top.

And now I have to go exercise for a few hours.  Happy weekend, everybody.
