"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

Cake Wrecks and Kids...

My kids absolutely LOVE the Cake Wrecks site. They have all spend hours looking at it with me. And, the other day, Gabe discovered his favorites on the site. Gabe loves the toilet cakes. What? You say you missed the toilet cakes. For shame. Run right over there and check them out. Hurry back, I'm waiting for you.

Are you back? Good. Now, on with the story. Last night Gabe came up to me while I was on the computer and asked to see the "toilet birthday cake". Well, I was tired and it didn't dawn on me to use that built in *"search blog" feature so I couldn't find the post. The more I tried to tell him I couldn't find it, the more **insistent he got that he HAD to see it. So, off I went to find toilet cakes. Thanks to the wondermous world of Google, I found many examples. It was kind of scary. I don't want to torture y'all so I'm only going to share one ***wrecktastic toilet cake.

Yes, it is really a cake. Yes, it is edible. This wrecktastic wonder was made by Margie F and can be seen at Cake Decorating Corner. Before any of you ask, this pic and the other wrecks I found were submitted to Cake Wrecks. Who knows what will come of it.

Doesn't it amaze you what we will look for and endure for our kids? Whats the absolutely most ridiculous thing you remember searching the internet to find?



*look up and look left...its in the blue blogger tool bar
**insistent = loud and whiny and demnding which I could not deal with at te end of the day
***thanks go to Jen of Cake Wreck fame for such a fabulos word. Did you know she has a book coming out?

That is so fascinating and so gross at the same time. Blech. I too love Cake Wrecks....

but it scares me that someone in real like probably ate that cake. And someone called out, "I'll eat the poo!"

*shudders* I can NOT imagine having that cake at a celebration. It's hilarious, don't get me wrong, but SO gross! I haven't showed Zilla that site yet. I know if/when I do, it'll be the end of my time on my PC!
*HUGS*

Hah! Just for the record, I have a semi-strict "no feces" rule on Cake Wrecks, which is why you haven't (and won't be) seeing the truly infamous toilet cakes there. :D

Thanks for the shout-out & e-mail, btw! I'm going to post about that crazy Amazon recommendation on Twitter at some point.

Now, I usually like a good dirty humor joke and I have a whole theme for Daver's vasectomy party, but...this? Kind of wigs me out. Like a lot.

I really don't think I'd be able to get past it and eat it. PERIOD.

Yeah, that is pretty gross. Some where I have/had a cake recipe for a kitty litter cake that is a cake and is edible etc but looks like a cat litter box. So fun and so wrong at the same time.

There are some seriously demented people out there. 21st birthday cakes should be in the shape of Coors Lite cans, not toilets! What are these people thinking? And the one with the poo-snakes in it is just wrong. Ugh. However, these people should get props for creativity. It takes a sick and twisted mind to come up with this kind of stuff!

Oh. My. Gosh. That is, like, ewwww.

Is it meant to be a clean or dirty toilet? Because I am concerned about what it tastes like!haha
