As a proud third place CAT 5 almost winner last year, I just want to say

that the Cherry Pie I won was the most treasured and delicious dessert I

have ever tasted. The idea for the prize is and was genius. Norman Babcock

and the EWEB team deserve nothing but the highest praise for their awesome

and fun race.

I like chocolate cake. preferably with a few layers of chocolate frosting

and filling. This cake could also be adorned with some sugar flowers to add

to the "presidentiality" of it, but mostly I come crashing down pretty hard

after eating one of those.







Thus, to switch the topic a little bit, I offer this:



What is your favorite cake/ desert?



Mine (currently speaking of course) is the 7lb All-American Chocolate cake

that can be found at Costco for $15.00.







That's a lot of cake..



Dave
