    What's your favourite flavour of cake?

    I'm very partial to a coffee cake myself. I often eat it while listening to CE.

    What kind of cake do you eat at 5 pm on a Wednesday?

    In reply to your very specifically worded question - none. But then, I rarely eat anything at 5 pm any day, as we have our evening meal at 6 pm. But thank you for asking!

        It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                      Natas! Yum!

                      But I'm partial to a large slice of Victoria sponge with proper creamy, vanilla-y filling...
                      "...the isle is full of noises,
                      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight. And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them."
