Er Mah Gourd!
Eek! I forgot to mention yesterday what is possibly the most popular indicator of Fall - you know, the one you see in every coffee shop, restaurant, and bakery across the nation.
Yep, I'm talking about that ubiquitous Fall flavor:
...Poop brûlée
Kidding, kidding. We all know the actual flavor of Fall is pumpkin:
Or on the side!
Or just washed down the edges.
Or whatever is happening here.
And when bakers aren't grossing us out with log-a-riffic "stem" action on their pumpkin cakes, they're busy gleefully spitting in the eye of Mother Nature:
I can just imagine them dramatically twirling their mustachios now:
"Take THAT, nature, with your natural shapes, and your natural colors, and your sickening lack of spikes and crappy silly string. HA. Haha! AHAHAHAHAHAA!!"
"Oh, and I always wanted my pumpkins to have a sphincter, so there."
Now, you might be questioning whether that is actually supposed to be a pumpkin.
First of all, NEVER QUESTION THE JEN.
Lest she speak of herself in the third person.
And second of all, of COURSE it's a pumpkin.
Can't you see that it's orange? And green? And brown?
WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT, YOU UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE PUMPKIN EATERS?
Ah.
Well, don't you worry; the turkey cakes are coming.

Jen, honey, have you been drinking a bit? Because none of those look like pumpkins. No need for the voice, but I am just sayin'.

The third cake looks like some old green beans had the runs all over the pumpkin. Ugh.
Sharyn, that was a great serng!
And I vow to NEVER question the Jen, or her awesomeness.

The fifth one looks like a cross between poop and a bad toupee.

Haha this is brilliant. I can't even...where is my appetite? What is lunch? You need to do a Cakewrecks Diet Thanksgiving Special, to keep us out of the pumpkin strussel pies. UGH
And Sharyn, fantastic as always! :D hahaha
Keep making "ERMERGERD" or 'ERMERGOURD" or any combination jokes. They will ALWAYS make me laugh out loud!
The stars must be right, for I'm seeing a Cthulhu theme in #2 & #3, what with the tentacles and all. Of course, they're pretty much all on a #2 theme, but, hey. Love is a many-sphinctered thing, and, so, apparently are pumpkins. At least now we know where all the poo is coming from.
Help! I'm laughing so hard I'm crying!!!
Three also has a whole, green, floppy octopus sprawled on top.
Are these seriously professional cakes? How do these people get/keep their jobs???
