I bought a raffle for a Smith Island Cake. I told the lady I purchased the ticket from that if I won the cake I would invite her back to the house to have a piece. She told me very seriously that her husband would not appreciate that. Of course I was just being humorous. Well, I won the cake. They called me to the front of the stage for me to introduce myself. The cake was all that legend makes it to be. Last summer we took our boat out to Smith Island for the day. What a delightful place. The cake is great. Recipes are held secret by those who bake them. Bribery failed. Three years ago when I first bought a house on Deal Island, my wife and friends and I went to a dinner and charity show at Deal Island School.

I think I saw this in the "best of" Saveur magazine a year or two ago. I want to go home and make it right now, which I guess means I'll need to invest in some dental floss. (Just kidding, although I'm not sure where B continues to hide it). Thanks for thinking of me and my monster this weekend. He's doing much better. As it turns out, he likes treats as much as I do and he won't go to the bathroom for anything else. Oh my goodness. I think I saw this in the “best of” Saveur magazine a year or two ago.
