It was Saturday my daddy's 80th birthday. My oven decided last week it time to play games with me. icon_cry.gif I have problems with just everything when making this cake for him. And all I want was a special cake for him!! After a while I decided I can't do anything more and it looks "fine" the way it is.

After packing the car I put the box with the cake on the front passanger seat, telling the kids I put it there and went back into the house to see if everything is locked. Back at the car my oldest one(9) took my handbag from her sister how was holding on it for my and throw it right on top of the cake!!! icon_mad.gificon_cry.gif With 2 butterflies that I have made once while I was playing I could cover the worst damaged parts!!
I don't even have a before picture.
My father thought it was a real old book and some people at the party also thought so. My one aunt said I must keep quiet about the handbag incident and let the people think it is suppose to look like that and they did!! But deep inside me I was crying!! icon_cry.gificon_cry.gif
