My grandson, Jack, who is 3.3 years old knows how to watch a YouTube video on an iPhone. And what, you ask, does he like to watch the most? Videos about making cakes! It's taken me way longer than it should have to connect the dots between Piece O' Cake and his love of cake-making videos. What can I say, I'm slow.
His favorite video is about how to make a fire truck cake (Chris, if you send me a link to that one and I'll share it) but he also likes this one:
My birthday was 1/11/11 when I turned 55. There is a good symmetry there – all those double numbers :-). We didn't have a party but Steve and I did drink champagne. We do have a party planned for 7/11/11 when I'll be 55 1/2 – half way to 111! I would really love to live to see the day when I turn 111 years old on 1/11. I believe in long-term goals and Steve and I hope to make it that far to enjoy the party we have on that day!
But, since 2066 is a long way off, when I get home from OKC I may be seeing a Princess cake when I get back from OKC because Jack really wants to bake an exciting cake. That boy is definitely related to me!
Chris sent the link:

Happy birthday! I look forward to seeing your princess cake photo.
