SOLSC '23 Day 9: Chocolate cake for breakfast

My husband baked me a
chocolate cake for my
birthday, and since it's 
only the two of us, I've 
been eating it every day since for
breakfast
and it's
making
me 
sick now.

Like blowing out those birthday candles, I've figured out 
how to extinguish a love for chocolate cake.

  1. Thank you, Heather! I thought of it as I looked at the last slice this morning. I don't think I can do it...

  2. Happy birthday, Chris!
    I'm guilty of eating leftover cake at odd times of the day. I like to think it's okay since I'm an adult.

    1. Clever punny reply too, Alice! I think typing on the computer makes concrete poetry even easier. Glad I tried it today!

    1. There is a name to this approach to behavior, but I just can't think of it. My stomach ache is a testament to the saying "too much of a good thing isn't good for you"!
