Lol at the drinks! Been there, done that ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood job recovering and getting the cake done! The look on her face made it all worth it! Can't wait to see Addy's answers!
Thanks for the giggles! Trust me, I've been there with the drinks as well. My story would end with one of my dogs somehow getting at the cake and consuming it though. Good luck with the rest! Can't wait to read Addy's responses!
