The cake above was a wonderful carrot cake from my favorite bakery, made in honor of five members of the Horizonte church staff who all had birthdays around the same time. Lots of us gathered at Martin and Mayte's house to have a hamburger dinner (with fresh cut vegetables and hommade ranch dressing, a surprising treat thanks to Rick and Deyis who used to live in Texas!)
So we pulled out the cake to do the traditional "mordida" (when the birthday person bites the cake, and normally gets their face smashed in it). Since there were 5 birthday people, we decided not to do any face smashing, as there would be no cake left to eat... Two people took a little lick of the cake, and Justin, the third person, was about to take his mordida when Rick decided to do a little face-smashing, but from the other side of the table (note to self, this is a bad idea). Rick pushed the cake, which was sitting on the table, in the direction of Justin's mouth, which was hovering above the cake for the mordida. Justin backed up and the cake didn't stop.
The result is pictured above. However, that wasn't the END end result... Martin and Mayte have two little dogs...
who I think were at the cake before it even hit the ground. We tried to hold the dogs back while Mayte tried to scoop up the part of the cake that hadn't touched the floor. We ended up actually eating the cake! It had no frosting on top (that stuck to the floor and the dogs ate it), but it was still yummy carrot cake!!
