This cake was delicious, but a fucking mess. I forgot to grease the cake pans like a goddamn amateur. It was my friend's birthday cake (sorry, Stacy), but she was nice about it.

Guys... it was fucking magic. Let me just say that seeing everyone in Savasana at the end is really moving. I had… Continue reading Homemade Dog Treat Muffins
