The Smaug one is particularly amazing! Why are such awesome cakes on a site called "cakewrecks"?

The awesome person who maintains that blog periodically makes a post highlighting stunningly beautiful cakes to counter the usual posts about hilariously awful cakes.

Sigh.

Just realized that I am not applying that embargo to books AT all. Ah well. I don’t count books as possessions i guess

Also saying as a freelance writer that books (and magazines and newspapers) are tax deductible. Any books/magazines/newspapers. Just saying
