You can, you absolutely can. The thing is now it's not just that cake at the bakery counter in the grocery store. You're going to commit to buying a 10,000 calorie pile of wonder. You need to make sure that you do a good job. You need to go find the best goddamn cake in your area. But then, that means you got to drive a little bit. And it's going to be expensive, and you already a couple of pounds heavier than you should be because you're out of time and dealing with the kids. Ah crap, the kids they're going to want some cake. I have to eat this in my car. Do you think the bakery has utensils? Damn now I'm going to have to go two places. Ahh screw it maybe the next time this is posted.

Yeah it makes me want to go out and get a cake. For about 30 seconds before I think about the logistics of actually getting a cake, having to pay for it myself, then eating like 2 pieces before I start feeling sick and overloaded on sugar and just leave the rest in the fridge until it goes stale.

Freedom is wasted on the old

This is one of the benefits of children. You eat the two pieces you want and they eat the rest. They don't care if it's stale. It's cake.

That's the most fun part.
