The great cake massacre of 2007

I had a session this morning and was in the middle of burning a backup when I get a phone call. Ron explains to me that I should “just come home” because we are out of cake and out of paper towels. 😀

Apparently, Abby and Emi, the partners in crime, managed to get the cake off the island, open it up, eat their fill and smoosh ALL the rest of it all over the carpet. Ron didn’t even want to attempt a cleanup until I saw the mess. 😉 Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrre that’s why … he wanted me to SEE it. 🙂

The cake was literally smashed into the carpet in at least 4 different places. And, of course, my parents and family would be arriving in 1.5 hours.

We picked up the “big” pieces and wiped up what we could and then I pulled out the big guns … the steam cleaner (I am SO glad we bought that thing so many years ago!). It took two trips to dump out the tank, and I went ahead and cleaned the entire room, so the floor looks really great now! 🙂

But there went 1/2 of a 1/4 sheet cake … no telling how much actually got eaten. 🙂
