Today, I am a Fairly Decent Baker

It's Katherine's birthday tomorrow, and unfortunately, she's spending today writing a synopsis and a query letter for her novel as part of a workshop she's doing in a couple of weeks. I know the pain of the synopsis, and therefore feel much sympathy. I decided she needed a cake, so I marched off to kroger with the intention of purchasing something made of lots of chocolate. Unfortunately, their cake selection was crap, so I ended up buying a Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Cake Mix, a couple of cans of Dark Chocolate icing, and a tube of icing to spell out Happy Birthday.

When I got home, I baked a cake and tossed a pack of Tim Tams in the freezer. Then I iced it. Broke up the Tim Tams with a hammer and poured the crumbs over the cake. The only problem was I ran out of icing for the lettering, so she got a Happy Birth cake.

Oh well. It still tasted really freaking good.

Now, if I could just finish this bloody chapter so I could send stuff out for my crit group.

*stab*

You'll notice that I sliced up the "birth" part first. ;)

Thank you. It was very tasty.

Typo boy. ;)
