Today’s food holiday is a piece of cake! Literally. November 26 is National Cake Day!
Hardly the first time this year we’ve celebrated cake. There have been cupcakes, shortcakes, spongecakes, pound cakes, angel food cakes, devil food cakes, applesauce cakes, cheesecakes, hazelnut cakes, coffee cakes, carrot cakes, and even – though this may be a stretch – pancakes. I haven’t done the math, but I think only pies have been better represented this year. Here’s a great chart I found detailing the history of many different types of cakes. Credit goes to a website called Foodbeast for this. Hey, at least I don’t have to type very much today!
To celebrate, we shared a slice of lemon cake with vanilla frosting from the bakery at Fred Meyer. It was light, airy, and delicious!

Show me someone who doesn’t like cake, and I’ll show you someone whose cake has just been swiped by me. 😀

I’ll be sure to never turn my back on you if I’m eating a piece of cake and you’re in the general vicinity.
