It's... CakeWrecks!
This sort of goes back to the title of this wonderful birthday post, which in turn refers to the inscription on a cake some of my college friends got for me when I turned 21. (It would be churlish of me to note that the inscription actually read "Happy Bar Mitzvah Irving" so I consider myself bechurled.) Apparently they picked it up at the Unclaimed Cakes counter at a local bakery.
It also reminds me that most of the masthead may recall that, in the midst of our very fun wedding reception, Laura and I almost forgot to cut our cake. In turn, Laura was the one who forwarded this link to me.
JJV may now lead the masthead in a rendition of "Circle of Life." Thank you.
Beware of the cake table! The "baby" cakes were horrific!
