The good thing, though, is that my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/\">brother<\/a> is &#8220;fixing&#8221; it for me. When we lived in California, and I experienced computer problems, I would always call him in a panic and ask for advice, and the first thing he would say to me was, &#8220;I told you to buy a Mac.&#8221; Next he would say, &#8220;What do you want me to do about it? I&#8217;m in Portland.&#8221; Now that I am in Portland, I can call him and make him come over or take the computer over to him.<br \/>\nBut anyway, I was going to talk about Megan&#8217;s birthday cakes! She threw herself a party to celebrate her 40th, so my brother and I flew down to join in the fun. She ordered three cakes from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delessiomarket.com\/Cake%20Menu%20Page.htm\">Delessio<\/a>!<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan chocolate tower.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"megan chocolate tower.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan chocolate tower-thumb.JPG\" width=\"200\" height=\"266\" border=\"3\" \/><\/a><\/center>This is the Chocolate Tower Cake. It is super impressive looking! It&#8217;s quite chocolatey, but I thought the other chocolate cake (the Malted Vanilla Cake) tasted better.<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan lemon cake.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"megan lemon cake.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan lemon cake-thumb.JPG\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" border=\"3\" \/><\/a><\/center>Lemon Decadence Cake. Nowhere in the description on the Delessio site does it say that this cake is smeared with coconut. Well, IT IS, so I was unable to eat it. Coconut lovers enjoyed the cake, though.<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan cakes.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"megan cakes.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/megan cakes-thumb.JPG\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" border=\"3\" \/><\/a><\/center>I didn&#8217;t get a photo of just the Vanilla Malted Cake. It was delicious! The chocolate flavor was much stronger in this cake than in the Chocolate Tower Cake, and the blobs of vanilla buttercream complemented the chocolate very nicely. It tasted kind of mocha-ey, for some reason.<br \/>\nSo anyway, we hung out and ate cake and met many nice people and did some freak dancing (ha ha, just kidding), and Sunday we continued to just take it easy and hang out. The weather in SF was absolutely gorgeous!
