13. If you like,
I'll find my recipe and post it. It's a nice moist cake, and since the 7 minute icing isn't tooth-achey sweet, it's a nice compliment to the cake.

11. I like a layer of each with vanilla ice cream
I can't have birthday cake without fresh strawberries or apricot filling.

It has something to do with childhood birthdays and that is the way that my mother ordered her cakes.

22. Because I don't do anything conventional
My favorite cake is guava cake from the Hawaiian Dee-lite bakery in Honolulu. Uwajimaya (an Asian supermarket here) carries it. It's sooooo good, and because I'm a girly-girl, I especially like that it's pink.:D
