It's just a stupid cake!!! [View all]
My guy found a cake that we wanted me to attempt to make for Christmas. I say "attempt" because I've never really been much of a baker, though being housebound during the pandemic has given me the opportunity to learn how.
Today, I have to make the cake, and I'm really sweating it out. Will it be the right density to allow for the fruit filling?
What happens if I screw it up?
Mom would know what to do. She'd know how to fix it.
I guess I knew that the holidays would exacerbate my feelings of loss. I just feel ridiculous falling apart over a stupid cake. Only my guy and I will see it, and I'm making an apple crumble as a backup for Christmas dessert.
I'm falling apart over a cake. Five months after she left us... I'm still falling apart.
