Weekly Cake Quotes!

Hi everyone! Thank you so much for your support! I am going

 to continue posting pictures of my latest creations, plus, I am

 beginning a weekly post on cake quotes! Each week, I will 

 post a funny quote said about cake sometime in the past. This 

 is for no particular reason, just because I need some humor 

 once in a while, am I right?


July 8, 2011:  "A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes he has the biggest piece." 
-Ludwig Erhard


July 11, 2011:  "I wanted to buy a candle holder, but the store didn't have one. So I got a    cake."
-Mitch Hedberg

August 1, 2011:  "When someone asks if you'd like cake or pie, why not say you want cake and pie?"
