Yes, I know. Some of you will say but the white chocolate is not the real chocolate and this golden lava cake is not really the lava cake?

Yes, I know and you are right. White chocolate is not a really chocolate and this cake is not a real lava cake.

But this is the OSCAR! A lot of things are fake! But you still can enjoy and pretend.

And trust me for this cake you will not pretend. YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Just remember – eat slowly! Very slowly!

What if your shadow wakes up before you, real you because the windows, walls and doors are screaming: “You have no balls in this life?

You loser. What is your problem?”

Just for a moment you get confused and you say to yourself: “Am I watching CNN?  Does somebody try to wash my brain because I did not

take shower last night? What is happening in this life?”

“Nothing, silly” , some creepy voice  answered. It is me.

Your Cookie from 5 star cookies trying to make introduction for my new food post called “The best chocolate cake balls”.

Fuck off you bitch! You scare me! Why is everything today about exploring “vulnerable part of people personality”.

“I don’t know, “- I tell my shadow in my best Barbara Walters voice. Like I said I am here for you.

“So, how come I woke up before you? You lying son of a bitch …why did you let me if you care”-my shadow asks.

Well, I was about to answer in my deep, concern voice when my alarm started and real me woke up.

Hello sunshine – sings my plate. Let’s grab life by the balls. CAKE BALLS! Ready?

About Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake

Here she comes – 1989. Miss America!

And she comes with lawsuit …Yes, that is correct! Gretchen Carlson filed the lawsuit against her boss, one of the most powerful man,

an American television executive Roger Ailes.

She says Ailes repeatedly made advances toward her, calling her “sexy”, asking for a sexual relationship during a meeting in his office and so on….

Because she says “NO”…long story short her contract was not renewed.

So, my dear readers why I am bringing this story to you?

Because, Gretchen Carlson courage is inspiring.

So many victims of sexual harassment are intimidated into staying silent.

Well, this Miss America was not. She stood her ground and also made her own statement.

“I have strived to empower women and girls throughout my entire career. Although this was a difficult step to take, I had to stand up for myself and speak out for all women and the next generation of women in the workplace.”

Dear my readers, please find her twitter account and support her.
