Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The idea of keeping a cake that's not going to taste good in a year confounds me.

With the Commonwealth tradition, you might even end up with an improvement on what started out pretty tasty. But I'm sure there's some explanation for what that's silly too.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My guess is that the top-tier-first-anniversary-cake was once the same liquor-sodden-fruit as the christening cake.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think a frozen cake would taste just fine. But then, I freeze everything, and have room-temperature food storage Issues.

So you switched it out for something that tastes less good? Crafty.

OMG, mom gave me some key lime curd. Just tried it. It is SO GOOD. And I don't really do spreads. Hell, I'll eat this stuff with a spoon. Perfect balance of sweet and tart.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The cake batter broke my spatula. That's how thick it is. First batch in the oven.

I've never watched House before, so I didn't know that one of my very favorite songs is the theme song.

Switched it for something that tastes better (at least to somebody) initially. Nobody bothered to change the cake saving tradition however.

I think I just caught the House love. He doubts ALL children with cancer are that brave, surely some of them are whiny little jerks.

Typical lack of exit strategy.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I loved my grandmother's fruitcake and I think I like some from a bakery in Texas, Corsicana I think. I've never had fruitcake with alcohol though.

It's my new bedtime, so I'm off.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I liked ita's mother's fruitcake, but it didn't like me.
