It was several years into married life that I discovered you can actually make cake from scratch and not from a box....but by then I was set in my ways...so boxes it is and because I didn't have two of the same flavours I settled on marble.
We all know its the frosting that makes the cake anyways....here is the best recipe I have found so far....

I added a little orange zest and juice (yes how Martha of me) yummmm.
Okay so they cracked...I was in a hurry and took them out of the pan will still hot, nothing a little frosting can't fix.

Done...cut letters out of cardboard freehand and hot glued them to tooth picks....Madison thought it was cute so that's all that matters. Tonight is mutual and Grant works late so we won't sing Happy Birthday to Mad Dog until 9:30 pm....Nothing like cake right before bed :)
While I was finishing the Cake.... 3 fire trucks went racing up the street.....
