Cakegate: The Delicious Drama
So, here’s the scoop: Carly, a 17-year-old who babysits her younger cousins for some extra spending money, found herself in a sticky situation when she ate two slices of leftover birthday cake at her aunt’s house. The cake in question was a fancy, custom-made lemon curd creation that had been sitting in the kitchen for two weeks. Carly’s aunt was not happy about the unauthorized snacking and demanded €20 in compensation for the pricey dessert. Carly’s mom, however, refused to pay, arguing that it’s petty to demand money for cake that was likely going stale anyway. Now, the family is divided over whether Carly’s mom is being inconsiderate or her aunt is just being ridiculous. Let’s see what the internet has to say about this delectable dilemma…
