Happy Birthday, Mom!

We had dinner here for Mom's birthday, I made angel food cake for the first time ever. Maisie helped make the frosting, but she was mostly interested in licking the bowl. I heard the word "lick" about 1,000 times before I actually gave up and handed over the bowl and the spatula! I wanna lick the bowl, Mom. Can I lick the spatula? Can I lick the beaters? MOM, when are you gonna be done so I can LICK THAT? Can I lick THAT? (points to the cake plate, where I had spilled the tiniest droplet of icing) Can I have a little lick right NOW? MOM, when can I lick the bowl???

She wasn't convinced you actually need to finish frosting the cake before licking the EVERYTHING!
