A Bakery House Cake is Worth the Humiliation

Let me take a moment to plug the best bakery on the Main Line, the Bakery House. Absolutely fantastic cakes and muffins. Since my birthday is at the end of the week, I decided to order a cake from there to bring home with me. Before I can reach my buttercream heaven, I had to endure this awkward moment with the baker

Me: Hi, I want to order a cake

Baker: Great, what should it say

Me: Happy Birthday Marianna

Baker: Alright, and your name is?

Me: Er, well....I'm Marianna

Baker: *snort* *snicker* oh...um....right then and your last name?

Judge me all you want for the fact that I don't have friends. We'll see who's laughing come Thursday when I'm in cake heaven.

Marianna, 

Huge fan of your work, especially your dishwasher unloading abilities, just wish you were a little better at recycling. I found this link amusing and thought it might be good for your weekly feature. Get back to work. Be good, be smart, be careful. Make sure you meet the high expectations for which we have set forth for you.

Let's just say this link involves a-Ha

I have a feeling this weekly feature will have a lot of OMP submissions
