Chocolate

And so, here we are, entertaining guests and for once we have a rich chocolate fudge cake to tempt them with. We  set it down carefully on a side table while tea is poured. Big mistake! One of our friends suddenly jumps in surprise as she spies our naughty ginger kitten, tongue busy carving a path all round the chocolate icing!

Of course we snatch the cake up immediately but there is no way we can offer the cake now and no-one fancies eating it. Except that is for the husband, whose passion for chocolate far outweighs any concerns about eating food sullied by one of our pets. His eyes light up in happy anticipation of being able to devour the whole cake himself.

I’m still wondering. Did he teach Rafa that trick deliberately?
