Be careful what you wish for. At the reception for [livejournal.com profile] tepintzin's (successful!) theology thesis defense, there was a large congratulatory cake (amongst other comestibles). When it was being cut up I jokingly asked for the 'piece with the cross on it'. It echoes a joke my Dad used to tell me. The cross was about 1/4 the size of the entire cake. Well there was too much cake for everyone to eat, and so two large plates of it came to our house with [livejournal.com profile] tepintzin and [livejournal.com profile] americanstd. One plate got finished yesterday, which was good, as [livejournal.com profile] taxlady doesn't much care for white cake so it will fall to me to demolish what's left.

I just looked in the fridge and was startled to see that whats left, just for me, is the piece with the cross on it.

I'd kill for some cake right now.
Depending on the cake, I think it would hold out well if you freeze it. So you don't HAVE to demolish it :P (I'd probably demolish it if I were you, though)

What, no one else had the guts to eat the cross? Even John the Revelator had to choke down a whole book just to get indigestion.

I saved it for him 'cause he's an atheist and I thought that was funny to do.

That's because I specifically saved the part with the cross on it for you.

I dreamt last night that we'd arrived back safely and were asleep in bed when there was a knock on the door and it was you and [personal profile] taxlady.
