Anyone ever heard of burial cake? I performed a burial service for a close friend Saturday and after the service at the reception, they had cake. I have heard of wedding cake, birthday cake, graduation cake, and retirement cake, but burial cake is a new one for me. I guess it is because the women who was buried was deeply in love with Jesus and everyone knew she really was happier now, so it was a celebration. For whatever reason, I like the idea of burial cake. So here is a short list of suggestions on how to expand this cake tradition.
Divorce Cake- Chocolate cake, with chocolate frosting filled with radishes in the filling.
Grizzly Bear Cake- For those who have become grizzly bears through their hard work. This one is made of meat and frosting. With a touch of an angels feather.
Constipation Cake- Filled with castor oil and topped with the Olestra stuff they put in the light potato chips.
Menopause Cake- Made purely from hormone supplements, hairnets, and Omega 3 fish oil (For the joints)
Last Place Cake- This one is sweeter than the rest (For added consolation) and filled with the blood of every person that did better.
Sing.

I'm a simple person to figure out. I usually write it all down here. I try not to pretend to be anything. I am what I am and that's good enough until it's not anymore. I want my kids to remember me smiling when I'm gone. Integrity is the very basis of a good life. I love my God, my wife, my kids, my friends, and I try to love all of the rest of you.
