Anita, you are so good about the holidays.
I have a special photo of my halloween red velvet cake just for you. I’ll email it to you. I know you will love it.
does it make me sound like a scroogess if i say that cake looks way too fattening?
N.M.
No, because that cake not only LOOKS fattening it IS fattening. It’s a case of the ad delivering exactly what it promises.
Hi Kitty!
I love the holidays, you can be creative, listen to great music and cook wonderful food till your bathroom scale explodes.
I LOVE it.
Wow! I expected something scary to jump out on the YOuTube. You sure got me on that.
