Love you, love what you do! And that cake ... ! My girlfriend was doing quite well handling the departure of her first-born to college until she was grocery shopping the next day and completely fell apart wracked with ugly crying in the produce section. Later, there was pie.

I did not know the fly story. Oh, but I'll remember it.

The cake was beautiful. I can taste it from here.

Always hug your daughter, and all will be well.

…dramatic literary energy is a cure to follicle instability! Thank you for the buoyant post. And curses for that beautiful bundt cake that I must admire only at a distance!
