Yesterday was a hysterical birthday celebration for M.Y., my youngest niece, the one who escaped from the clutches of death.
I have told her story on her birthday post last year. If you have time. Go read and you will know how strong willed this little being is.
Why hysterical?
All thanks to ‘someone‘ in the family who insisted on getting an ice-cream cake, instead of the usual. (name of person is kept private for good reasons *giggle*)
The cake was delivered to the doorstep in a ‘dry ice’ filled Styrofoam box. The cake was kept inside till evening, when it was time for the singing of birthday song and the blowing of candles.
Everything was great. Everyone’s only worry was ‘KEEP THE CAKE COLD, SO THAT IT DOES NOT MELT.’ *laugh*
Instead, THE CAKE WAS AS HARD AS ROCK!!!!! *HUGE LAUGH*
I was laughing uncontrollably!!!! I’m so sorry… damn! I’m still laughing now as I type. *laugh*
The KNIFE COULDN’T GO THROUGH IT AT ALL!!!! *laugh*
The cake was left in the open for another half hour, in the hope to MELT IT but the Knife Still Couldn’t Go Through it at all!!!
In the end, they had to HAMMER the knife into the cake! Guess what?! *laugh* THE KNIFE BROKE~!!!!! The handle broke off from the blade! *faint* The Cake was Still IN ONE PIECE!!! *HUGE laugh*
Everyone was SCOLDING that ‘someone‘ for ‘not sticking to the norm’. (So now you know why I shouldn’t say the person’s name?)
In the end, they need to use a CHOPPER and a HAMMER before the cake could be divided!!! *laugh*
Allan was in the room with the kids. He came out too late to give the most brilliant advice “Why didn’t you guys thought of heating the knife over a flame before cutting the cake? That would melt the cake easily with every cut, won’t it?”
What a Cake!!!! *huge laugh*
