I guess the restaurant staff didn't know your daughter-in-law was coming, so they didn't bake a cake. Did I get that right?

LOL…the fancy sushi restaurant that my son and DIL went to offered no dessert. You’re right.

Makes me think of a chocolate cake I read about called 'blackout cake' because it was such a dark chocolate, love the line 'godiva midnight'!

LOL…I think so! It is these little faux pas that can make a memory. It was not a thoughtless day. ;)
