Stupid Siblings
Although I was raised as an only child, I do happen to have step-siblings. They only appeared in the summers as they lived a few thousand miles away. My older step-sister was a bully. Mother always instructed me to ignore her as best I could and remember that she will be gone in a month.

This sister of mine decided one year to try her hand at baking. I think her reasoning was that it was something I was good at so naturally she had to beat me at it.

She was terrible (1 tablespoon of salt in the brownies instead of 1 teaspoon). Because she was so terrible, she began to take over all recipies I made, claiming them as her own. She would also eat all of her spoils of the little war.


Being fed up, I hatched a simple plan. Alright I admit: it was my Mother's plan, but she too grew up with a bully in the house. From that point on, I baked my sister's favorite white cake and added either green or blue food coloring.

Anyone with half a brain knows that food coloring doesn't change the taste, but it will change the way you think about the newly hued item.

Mother and I were the only ones in the house to eat cake for the rest of the summer. My sister still gaggs at the sight of her old favorite: the white cake.

Why should a colored cake...
put her off eating it?

Because she is a dumbass.
My brother and step-father refused to eat it too. Mother didn't marry into the brightest of families.
