My mother brought home dozens of different colored/textured carpet squares in the '70s, and we three older kids, maybe 10 to 13ish, spent the next three weeks using big, curved needles to stitch together enough of them to cover our living room floor. My mother was nuts. Still is, for that matter.
I don't know why so many people order our blue cake. It says right there in the description that it's nothing more than 'our white cake, dyed blue'. But they do, and so we dye our signature white cake blue.
