My tiny, innocent, beautiful cake

Im sorry I made your collar too high.

Im sorry I put you too close to the heating element.

Im sorry I wasnt more careful when checking on you.

Im sorry you burst into flames.

Im sorry it rained burning parchment paper.

Im sorry the towel embracing your sides had dried out and caught fire too.

Im sorry! Im sorry! Im sorry!

But thank you for sparing my oven. And my eyebrows. And my house. Your heroic sacrifice will always be remembered. icon_cry.gif

Yours truly,
Sif

Glad you are okay! You should still make cake balls and just call the burned part "my secret flavor!"

*wonders if this has anything to do with an addiction to CC? Were you posting while your cake was burning??*

Maybe because im in a soup and juice diet, but even burned looks like it would be great with a spoon

Actually it only caught fire because I tipped the rack ever so slighty when checking on it. And POOF icon_cry.gificon_lol.gif

It was still raw inside so I can't even make secret ingredient cake balls.
