Just wanted to share some giggles...
I teach 2nd grade, and every morning when the kids come in they are supposed to write on a given topic in their journals. Since we've been working on How-To writing, I made the topic "How to make a cake". Here are some of the funnier responses...

First get out do. (dough). Then roll it good. Fluff it up. Then put the cake in the oven. Then time it. Then wait. Then you open it and put icing on it.

First you get the ingreedeense (ingredients) for the cake. Second you mix it up. Third you smash it together.

1. Go to the store.
2. Go to the cake aisle.
3. You buy it.
4. You bring it home.
5. You eat it.

Get some bread. Cut it like a surcul (circle). Put frosting on it. And put some candles on it.

I buy it at the store but I know they put icing on it and then put it in the oven.

I would first put flour in the oven. Bake on 433 degrees. Take out. Put icing on it. Put chocolate chips on and then you have it.

First you will need a bowl, eggs, milk, a measureing cup, and then flour. First you put 2 cups of flour. Then you put 2 eggs in the bowl. Then you put 1 cup of milk. Then you stir the batter. Then you put cake batter into the filling. Then you put it into the oven for 2 hours. Then you take it out and decorate it.

Those are the cutest answers ever! I guess the kids that said "go to the store and buy it" don't have parents that cook very often?

I feel sorry for the little one who has bread for cake. Maybe you could have an art class and some cakes or cupcakes and let them decorate them. I guess since i wouldn't trust a 2nd grader w/ a mixer, bring that too.

lol ~ I'm so glad I am not the only one! I will never live down the time my friend and I were baking and we had a glass of wine (we were not even drunk or anything) and I wasn't paying attention and turned around and put my elbow into the freshly decorated cake. So now she says "Friends don't let friends drink and bake".....or she calls me the 'Lush-ious Baker'...... icon_razz.gif

I always promise my students' parents that I'll only believe half of what their kids say about them, as long as they promise to do the same for me!

Oh boy, you should've posted this a bit earlier, could've used some of those quotes as sayings for the aprons for the cake decorating party I threw. What a riot that would've been. Thanks for posting them, I'll be saving these for future inspiration
