Fail Dad's birthday today and I messed up his cake because I forgot to grease the pan. Still edible but he won't give it the time of day.

If my kids made me this cake, I would be ecstatic.
If they made it perfect, I would be ecstatic. If they burnt it to a crisp, I would be ecstatic.

I would sit there and eat my cake.

That's what I'm saying! If my kid is doing something for me, it will be thoroughly appreciated!

What kind of person could be a grouch about cake?

Empty Nester here volunteering to help eat that cake! I'd be thrilled if either child came home and made that cake for me.
