Rhi had asked to go to Michaels this weekend so she could get some food coloring. I could have helped her out, but I had loaned mine out to Crisanna so she could host the shower of all showers. (Digression: The shower was a Rock Star success! Woot! Now go get some sleep!) We didn’t make it to the store, but that was okay because Crisanna, being infinitely more responsible than I am) brought the food coloring back to me on Monday. Except then I forgot it at work. Sister fail. So Monday night we made it to the store so Rhi could get some food coloring to make the rainbow cake. And all was good.
This morning, I got a chat message from Rhi asking where my cupcake pans were. That would be: At work, right underneath the box of food coloring. Whoops. Sister fail, again. But no worries! Because she would make a cake! And all was good again!
A few hours later, I got another chat message from Rhi. She somehow managed to get the sink stopper stuck. I asked if Gracie could get it out. Turns out, they’re both weaklings. I unstuck it when I came home. They swear they loosened it.
So I had to laugh when I saw the cake:
Yes, indeed.

I LOVE that she put in on a cake for posterity to enjoy – that’s the way all memories should be made, really.
Also? I was merely inspired by your initial responsibility-taking of bringing the food coloring/cupcakes/etc/etc to rescue the shower in the first place. My memory’s just not that clever on its own…especially when running on a lack of sleep.

Coming home to cake is always a welcome sight! (OK, the children still being alive is good too…)

That is awesome. Sort of related side note – if you ever decorate a BIRTHDAY cake in sprinkles. Um – don’t stand too close when the candles get blown out. sprinkle explosion in your face.

[...] while they’re home during the day with Auntie Rhi. I remember last time getting a picture of the cake that was waiting for me at home. Oh! Which reminds me – we also are having a Reese’s [...]
