Specially Made For a Mother on her birthday. Do you love carrot cake also?





And look what we found? YUP, a Carrot Cake Poem! Ain't this cool?


CARROT CAKE

by Carolyn Henderson

Dreaming of dessert that’s mighty fine?
Something rich, creamy, lusciously devine?
Not many desserts would I dare refuse,
but, carrot cake, aah, I will always choose.

My lips smack on that delectable treat,
my hips expand three inches in a week.
That’s why I watch my caloric intake,
to keep my body at a desirable weight.

But my carrot cake should I bake,
I may lie about the true intake.
All that frosting atop that cake--
temptation's too great to alleviate.

Confectioners sugar, cream cheese and butter,
add pecans; now that’s a booger!
Cake layers thinner, more icing to cover,
stacking them high one on another.

I shred my carrots really fine,
stirring and mixing to thoroughly combine;
pour in pan, await oven's chime;
closer now to lip-smacking time!

This mother's day, what will you choose for your dear mom?

Cakes For Thoughts has launched 9 meaningful handmade designs cupcakes just for you and your mom at a bargain price! ( click here )





House - Represents home. Mom keeps the house clean and tidy. Makes it cozy, fills it with warmth and love. Mom brings the family together. We share joy and laughter under this shelter which we call home and home is where your heart is.

Watering can and flowers - Implies that our mother works hard to beautify our home, makes us feel comfortable after a long day out. Just like a watering can, she “waters” our family with tender, loving and care.

Mr. Sunshine & clothing - With her tender smile and warm embraces, Mother is like the Sun that shines and the warmth of the Sun that dries our clothes (tears).

Cooking culinary (wok, pan etc) - Reminds us of our mom who takes care of our well beings since we were young, ensuring we have nutritional food in our stomach, so that we grow up healthy.

Teapot & Cup - A Mother and her child are very dependent of each other, just like this teapot and cup design. It can also portray a Mother’s love in protecting her child from being hurt or bullied, always carries extra weight/burden but never once grumble. Does this remind you of Mrs. Potts (teapot) and her son, Chip (teacup) in Beauty and the Beast?

Apron and Glove – Well, our mom stopped looking “good” after we were born because she was too busy taking care of us and the family. We should in fact be like the apron and glove, protect our mother whenever possible from dirt, pain and hurt.

The heart with wording – Is more than just a greeting to our mother. “Happy Mother’s Day” is a reminder to let our mothers know how much we love her, how much she is appreciated and she will always remain as a gem in our hearts.

Two bouquets of carnations - Pink Carnations have been traditionally associated with Mother’s day on which mothers are honored. Among carnations of different colors, there are different meanings associated with them. We chose pink carnations simply because it means always on my mind.


Thank your mother for always being your pillar of strength and support with our meaningful gift box, now available for order at a bargain price!
