Father Son Cake Bake or Son Cake Bake with as little help from Mom as possible.

Every year our Cub Scout pack holds a Father Son Cake Bake. The cakes get judged for creativity in several different categories; Scout spirit, patriotism, cartoon characters and sports. The idea is that the boys have to make a cake with their dads with no help from the moms! In some households that is a disadvantage. But in others......not so much. That would be the case in our house. Getting help from Mom does not guarantee a victory.

This year Dad was very busy "migrating" something or other so that WaMu customers can be bona fide Chase customers. Yada Yada Yada, Blah Blah Blah. I know it was all very important stuff but it was all very confusing. Long story short, Mom had to be the Dad this year. I really tried to do as little as I could and let the boys do the rest. The only help they really needed was with the stripes. It wasn't our best cake but it wasn't anything to be embarrassed of either.

Here's Liam icing the cake. Simon did all the baking.

Final result. Go Bengals!
