Today you are you!
That is truer than true!
There is no one alive…
…who is you-er than you!
Shout loud, “I am lucky
to be what I am!
Thank goodness I’m not
just a clam or a ham
Or a dusty old jar of
sour gooseberry jam!
I am what I am! That’s a
great thing to be!
If I say so myself,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!”
–Found by the lovely KTK and written, of course, by Dr. Seuss
…but of course one cake is hardly sufficient for such a literary icon. And so I present to you many many more.
Say! I like Green Eggs and Ham! I do!! I like them, Sam-I-Am!
This fish one is specifically for my dad, who dutifully pretended to scream every time we asked for "Hop on Pop"...
At first you're thinking "not bad...nice change of pace I guess." And then you realize the blobby ones...
ARE TRUFFULA TREES!
Perfect cake decorations...
...are perfect
Take it slowly, this cake is DANGEROUS
And we’ll end with a whole party:
…complete with Green Eggs and Ham and Carved Roast Beast
…and, perhaps my favorite dish of all:
A crumb even too small for a mouse
Thank you, Dr. Seuss, for making my childhood full of poetry and fun.
Love,
