Chaz and I had birthday cake at lunch today. German chocolate cake, since you asked. A piece from Safeway, because Dad always liked store-bought cake for his birthday. Grandmother could always make wonderful cakes, and the stores couldn't match them for taste, but a store-bought cake was special, somehow. So Dad always wanted one on his birthday. He'd have been 75 today.

My grandma is like that about boughten cakes, too. We have finally convinced her that flavor is paramount for the rest of us, but she really likes the fancy, and she never got boughten anything when she was a kid.

I will lift a forkful to his memory the next time I have cake.
