Who Ate The Cake?

Hubby has two favorite cakes.  For his birthday I cooked both his favorites, German Chocolate and Pineapple Upside Down.

I noticed the German Chocolate was going down fast.

I asked him, "So how's the German Chocolate?"

"It's good," he said, "Someone else likes it."

Puzzled, I asked, "You haven't eaten that whole cake?  There's just one piece left.  What about the Pineapple Upside Down?"

"That's Pineapple Upside Down?  I thought it was just a plain white cake."

"No, it's just not turned upside down.  It is pineapple".

Then he says, "There are two spoons in that chocolate cake.  Who's been eating that?"

"Not me! I had one piece."

Hubby said, "Well, I certainly don't use a spoon.  I put mine on a plate and enjoy it with a fork."

After a continuing discussion on who ate the cake, the truth came out at the doctor's office.  Hubby has lost nineteen pounds.  My pants are tight...the elastic topped ones!

I guess I've resorted to sleep eating since I too busy while I'm awake.

Last cake I'm making!

I learned not to care about the number on the scale after years of yo-yo dieting, bulimia, and being extremely hateful to myself. I wouldn't like to be sleep eating, though. I want to enjoy it!

LOL, I have never heard of sleep eating. But, I guess it could happen. Both cakes sound yummy!

Congrats to hubby for the weight loss- I wish I could say the same. It's been a rough summer and I have eaten everything in the house it seems. I hope to get back on my diet before the holidays arrive...no hope for me if I don't.

If I had a German Chocolate cake in the house, I might be sleep eating as well.

I've only heard of eating in your sleep on TV or cartoons, but I suppose it could be possible.
Frankly, I'd be talking to Andrew. I bet he has to replenish his energy somehow!
Blessings to you all. ♥



P.S. Google is at it again. Despise verifications.
