I confess:
I don't like to cook.
It is not rewarding to me.
It is not how I show my family my love.
I live with a bunch of ingrates that
"hate" what cook.
I especially don't like to bake.
Who needs extra treats around the house anyway right?
Kid #1 had Pack Meeting last night.
They had a cake decorating contest.
Which meant that I had to bake a cake.
I. don't. bake. cakes.
So, what did I do?
I confess:
I went to the *Bulls Eye*
and
BOUGHT a cake.
Then guess what I did.
I brought it home, scraped off all of the store frosting and decoration,
and re-frosted it with some frosting I had in the food storage.
Nice, huh?
When Peanut came home, he decorated it happily!
This is how it turned out!
He won the prize for "Funniest Cake"
I thought it was wonderful!
Here are a few of the other cakes that were there:
I confess:
This morning when the cake slipped out of Peanut's admiring hands and landed frosting first onto the floor,
I was sad that his masterpiece would not be enjoyed, (except by the tile).
But I was also grateful that the temptation of cake was now in the garbage.
What do YOU have to confess?

What a great idea. IF you don't bake you don't bake! lol
Sorry about his cake..that makes me sad for him :( But I do understand not wanting the temptation!
At least he did something. I did the whole thing and it was white. I think your a genius! Love, love, love your picture at the top! Awesome.
Cooking and I are not friends. And baking really is a pain. You are not alone!
i love to cook but hate to bake. i love that you bought the cake scraped the store frosting and refrosted.
brilliant!
thanks for linking up!
I love to bake but I make things that taste good, but not necessarily look like show pieces. I know I get my turn at making a cake soon for Thomas...and I am not looking forward to it...actually I resent it!
I love that this was your confessional.
I don't love to cook or bake either. I dread coming up with something for dinner EVERY. SINGLE. DAY!
That's hilarious! The dog got a hold of my son's scout cake last year and no one enjoyed it after that.
You're a culinary genius.
