Funny Friday!

A young couple were married and then embarked on their honeymoon. When they returned, the bride ran to the phone and called her mother, who asked, "How was your honeymoon, dear?" "Oh, mama!" she replied, "The honeymoon was so wonderful and romantic..." But then, suddenly she burst out crying and said "but, mama, as soon as we returned home, he started using the most horrible language... things I'd never heard before! I mean, all these awful 4-letter words! You've got to come get me and take me home. Please mama!"

"Darling, darling," her mother said, "calm down and tell me, what words could be so awful?" And, the daughter cried "please don't make me tell you, mama! I'm so embarrassed - they're just too awful! Just come and get me, please!"

"Oh, darling, you must tell me what has you so upset... tell me these horrible 4-letter words!" Still sobbing, the bride said, "Oh, mama... words like DUST, WASH, IRON, COOK...!"

It's a Yummy kind of day!

Did you know today (Jan 27th) is National Chocolate Cake Day?

What a yummy reason to stop by your local bakery or whip-up a chocolate-y treat in your kitchen! Have a slice of Chocolate Cake and celebrate...and don't forget to enjoy it with a tall glass of milk!

About Cakes:

Cakes have been around since the discovery of flour. Variations on cake recipes could be found around the world based on the particular region, but all had the same basic cake characteristics.

In Medieval England, cakes were flour-based sweet foods described as breads. The words bread and cake were somewhat interchangeable for some time among Neolithic villages and they were usually cooked on a hot stone.

In Greece, cakes were more of a heavy, flat cake and were called "plakous." During the Roman period, cakes were primarily used as an offering to their gods. These types of cakes were also more like a cheesecake or pastry

Today, cakes, breads, and pastries have differentiated themselves significantly and all have blossomed into wide arrays of sizes, shapes, and flavors. The most popular type of cake though is chocolate. From German, dark, white, black forest, to even chocolate beer cake, it's difficult to pick just one type of chocolate cake to enjoy.

Quote of the day...

The greatest doing on earth is "to love"

and the greatest achievement is

"to be loved in return".
