Q. When is a Cake a Torte?

Q: Yeah, who gives?


Victoria brought in this Andre's torte to rehearsal for the Owen Cox Dance Group premiere piece we are doing this weekend (ah, la! a premiere, so flippant...no big deal) called the "Lewis and Carroll Expedition", a mashup of The Lewis and Clark Expidition and Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland... Soup, mosquitoes and hookas all in this fun setting.

I'm also singing a few other pieces including Brad's Lullabies. It's a joyous time for me!!

If you have known me for some time, you know about the 'cake diet' and the many cakes I have loved over the years.


This particular TORTE (whatevah) from Andre's is l'ish.as in Deelish. As you hopefully can see there are multiple flavors in the cake/torte collection that Victoria curated for us. I'm not a pink person, I'm just not built to like pink all that much, but the pink version was unh-hunh yummy.

Before you go off thinking, "Ah! That's what I need to get Nathan!" Refrain from your enthusiasm. I'm just like you, I cannot resist. But you know, may as well strap it on my thigh.

...But where would the fun be in that?

Come see the show this weekend. It'll be something you can talk about for decades.
best,
Nat
