Church Cake!
Alice was to bake a cake for the church ladies' group bake sale,
but she forgot to do it until the last minute.
She baked an angel food cake, and when she took it from the oven,
the center had dropped flat.
She exclaimed, "Oh dear, there's no time to bake another cake!"
So, she looked around the house for something to build up the center
of the cake.
Alice found it in the bathroom... a roll of toilet paper.
She plunked it in and covered it with icing.
The finished product looked beautiful, so she rushed it to the church.
Before she left the house, Alice had given her daughter some money
and specific instructions. She told her to be at the bake sale the
minute it opened,and buy that cake and bring it home.
When the daughter arrived at the sale, the attractive cake had already
been sold.
Alice was beside herself.
The next day, Alice was invited to a friend's home where two tables of
bridge were to be played that afternoon.
After the game, a fancy lunch was served, and to top it off, the cake in
question was presented for dessert.
When Alice saw the cake, she started to get out of her chair to rush
into the kitchen to tell her hostess all about it.
before she could get to her feet, one of the other ladies said, "What a
beautiful cake!"
Alice sat back in her chair when she heard the hostess (who was a
prominent church member) say,
"Thank you, I baked it myself."
I heard that one before and the lady who claimed the cake was someone Alice didn't like.
