A Little Chocolate Cake Cures All

As I wrote in my previous blog post, Kenzie wasn't feeling too well at my birthday celebration. Her nose was constantly running and it was obvious she had a bit of a headache. She sort of moped around all evening... she was a bit clingy... she was scowling... she had a perpetual Clint Eastwood squint in her eyes... she had no desire to join Lukey on the boats... all telltale signs she was not feeling well.

When the birthday cake emerged from the house with a candle on it, Kenzie perked up, smiled and clearly was getting a bit excited.

When she dove into her big piece of chocolate truffle cake, I really think she started to feel a bit better.

Afterward, she was a bit smiley...  more like her usual self. She was laughing and seemed content. Gone was the Clint Eastwood squint and the scowl.  

So, is chocolate truffle cake a secret cure for all that ails us?
