Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 2: What's Your Favorite Childhood Dessert Memory?

When I was 10 my parents had a freind who was an amazing baker. All of her cookies and brownies and pies were better than anything that could be bought at a bakery and I always looked forward to going to her house knwing something special was in store. On one particular occasion she made the most perfect looking homemade chocolate cake with chocloate frosting that I had ever seen. It was and still is to this day my most favorite desert. My parents kept warning us to behave and when it came time for desert I was too embarrassed to say i would like some when she asked. So i left with none even after she prodded me to take a piece home. I regretted it to this very day but it has since changed me in that I will NEVER say NO to something I truly desire! I have repeated this story to my own kids now more than few times-so much so that they roll their eyes at me...I am 48 now and have that same exact cake whenever possible and think of Catherine with every forkfull!!!
