Cake

Today I bought a cake, that was way too expensive really for me to buy, but I bought it for my very good friend's birthday, who was trying to celebrate while we were having our final tech rehearsal for LA TRAVIATA.   So I bought this cake from a famous Italian Bakery (Venieros) which is right near the theatre.  After rehearsal all of my friends friends went to a pub, where we ate this cake, and shared it with the waitstaff who generously gave us dishes and utensils, and free shots.  (The cook came out and when we offered her a piece almost looked like she was about to cry of happiness!  It was so sweet!)  And I'll tell you what - every penny I spent on that cake was well well WELL worth it because for 30 minutes it brought so much delicious happiness to so many people!  And I think it helped make my friend's birthday very special and happy and "most marvelous."  YAY CAKE!
