Anyway I sold newpapers on the weekend in front of a Supermarket. At the front of this store was a donut bakery. (We were poor and my twin sister and I had never had a birthday cake from a bakery.) With money I made from that job I was able to buy our first special ordered from the bakery birthday cake. It was made of cake donuts, filled with whip cream and strawberries. The look on the faces of my brothers and sisters when I brought that cake home, for our birthday surprise..... Let's just say a bunch of kids were very happy and stuffed with a bakery cake.

Great story Greyson
