To have a piece of dds cake now when its her birthday tomorrow?

[OfficeNewGirl]

Shes 2 tomorrow.

She wont notice will she if i put candles on her cake with a piece missing? Shes not having a party and there will be only me and dh with dd when we sing to her.

Im dying to have a piece

When my daughter was two she would have absolutely noticed if a piece had been missing and there would have been hell to pay

Eat it all then buy another if you really can't control yourselves. But don't take a slice (or two, if you include your dh) then try to present it tomorrow

YABU. It's her Birthday cake! Control yourself.

Besides. Shop bought birthday cake is vile.

Don't do it. You are being very silly.

How about you get baking if you are so desperate for cake.

No no no! Don't do it, go to the shop.

My Dc would definitely have noticed and almost certainly cried. Don't risk that on her birthday.

SaucyJack I'm shocked, shocked I say!

Its mean and selfish
Two grown ups can control themselves.

No you really, really can't. Seriously. Control yourselves, this is really gross.

I have never heard anything so outrageous you are terrible parents and think ss should be informed.

Seriously she will be scarred for life and her birthdays will forever more be a reminder of how her parents obviously neither loved nor cared for her.

I need a lie down as I have found the thought of this so terrible.

Send dh out for cake...this is urgent you need some...step away from the birthday cake till tomorrow...

I still can't work out if the OP is serious or not?

I've seen so many threads where people are getting silly and giggly about cake. "AIBU to have just eaten an entire box of donuts to myself?" "No YANBU! I've just eaten 7 donuts and an entire box of chocolates meant for the whole family at Christmas".

This is normally followed by tons of giggly posters trying to outdo each other about how many sweet things they can eat in one sitting.

So maybe she's not being serious and just thought the thread would go like all the others tend to?

Have a look for the microwave chocolate cake in a mug thing and have that instead.

Worra

Its half serious and half not. I really was tempted to have some and me and dh did discuss it...

However obviously im not going to as it would be mean, and plus i want to take some photos

Oh right, it was hard to tell

Seriously though, you don't want your child growing up thinking that if they don't eat cakes etc immediately, they won't end up with any at all because Mum and Dad have no willpower.

I'm not saying that is the case of course, but it does happen in some homes.

If a child doesn't eat all their Easter eggs for example, the parents take and eat them, so the child learns to binge eat instead of making them last a few weeks.

2??! Dd won't remember it.

Tuck in.

Here's the perfect solution OP

That video was amazing.

You can't have the cake though, you will just have to wait and see if DD will share her cake..... She may even say no!!!!!!

Its funny you should mention that worra.

I grew up with a step father from age 13 onwards who would eat anyone's cake if they left it lying around. Anything you put in the fridge, whether it was something sweet or just something he really liked, he would scoff it.

Open the bloody wine op.

I found some jaffa cakes in the fridge.

I ve eaten those instead

My friend's whole family was very much the same, OP.

She could never understand how if I left a box of chocolates lying around, my parents or 5 siblings wouldn't touch them without asking.

She took to hiding sweets in a box file at the back of her wardrobe

My mother now hides any chocolate IN THE SAFE!!

Even chorley cakes....

Have some self control now (helped by Jaffa cakes) and then have guilt free cake for breakfast

Mug cake is your friend
