I’m not a cake person. I made myself sick eating too much of my birthday cake when I was young, and I’ve never wanted the stuff since (I can’t stomach mint chocolate chip ice cream either–I think it might have been involved in this same birthday’s upchucking incident).

I’ll go crazy on a brownie, or a cookie or chocolates of any kind–I even regularly eat all the icing off a piece of cake–but you simply can’t tempt me with cake.
