As the true co-dependent I am, I felt the pain Ms. Maggie was going through by not getting a carrot cake for her birthday. I just had to take care of one of my friends (at lease I think I am a friend, I could be a nuisance, who knows) and bake her a carrot cake. Of course I always have an ulterior motive, like for instance; to get a free diet Pepsi now and then, get approval from my co-workers, be the center of attention for one fleeting second of my pathetic and lonely life. Please shed no tears for me, dam 'em up. So with the help of Sylvie's mixer I added a tablespoon of love, a dash of passion, and a cup of loooooove potion. So feel the love people, feel the love.
