You are apparently not familiar enough with the Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade oeuvre.
Is it okay if I'm proud of that? I want to be proud of that.
Lydia: But you are a vampire. Spike: If I'm not, I'm gonna be pissed about drinking all that blood.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes, Sue. I am super happy to never have to shovel.
Yes, ita !, you should be proud of that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Jesse,
your Sandra Lee shout-out scared me.
But I laughed at the same place you did regarding doing everything from scratch. I have never made stuffing from scratch (making my own bread, making my own sausage) and I ain't starting tomorrow.
Half of the time, we are lucky that I am picking up a pan to cook dinner, much less that everything is made from scratch.
Sandra Lee though? That Kwanzaa cake?

Gotta love the Kwanzaa Kake.

hip deep in pie
I had a little nap instead of shovelling.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I was at a friend's birthday party where another friend showed up with a Sandra Lee-inspired "cake" for the birthday girl.
Let me be clear: I *love* cake. LOVE. I'm not sure I've ever met a cake I didn't like, although of course I do have preferential ranking.
I took one bite of that "cake" and seriously spit it back out. It was, like Cool Whip and -- I think booze??? -- and maybe an angel food cake and jello and I'm not sure what all else.
I like all of those things inividually (or, at the very least, they aren't so offensive to my taste buds that I would spit them out). I have no idea what dark majicks were worked upon that "cake" to make it so disgusting.
The birthday girl's *dog* wouldn't eat the cake.

Because books.

Dude. That's a nasty cake.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
The cake wasn't presented as a joke cake? The friend was trying to bring something "nice"? Ouch.

That sounds about right. There should have been something out of a can as well.
