Hi.
Today a bride was coming to my house to collect her wedding cake. I make cakes part time as a paying hobby. BTW this could really out me in RL but I don't care as it's quite funny.
I took the smallest tier of the cake to her car, and she came with the biggest tier. My DS (3) was watching us and he suddenly disappeared. I had one of those mummy moments when you just know what is going to happen, and I followed him back into the house at about 300miles per hour. As I'd suspected he was carrying the middle tier out of the house in an attempt to be helpful and SMASH, it landed on the floor. I was in bits. Luckily the cake wasn't. I guess a Madeira cake covered in icing is pretty indestructible.
Luckily the bride, who was hot on my heels, was incredibly understanding, and managed to calm me down! The cake was still perfect.
My question is am I being unreasonable to think my DS should help a little bit less and NOT TOUCH THE WEDDING CAKES? Obviously I'm just asking for your embarrassing moments and praying I'm not alone in the HUGE mess I found myself in?
Hope that's made you laugh!
