What the?!

Watching a documentary in which a person mentions cake.
Mr Brammers: Ooh, cake! Would you like a cake tomorrow? I might bake one. I really enjoy baking cake, and I haven't made one for ages.

…

Mr Brammers: Why are you looking at me like that?
Me: We have been together for OVER SIXTEEN YEARS and this is the first I have heard of this!

Seriously, he has made out that producing toast is something of a trial. If I come home tomorrow and there is a perfect Victoria sponge, I may weep – equal parts delight and frustration.

Am reminded of my aunt's trials with 3 teenage boys, each with 2 teenage male best friends who would come over after school; she still claims 9 teenage boys are collectively known as a locust plague. Microwaveable packet cake was her friend; I distinctly remember them having one pantry cupboard full of food and a second stocked only with packets of cake mix, which would be restocked weekly.

I am reminded of this because my cousins still boast of their cake making skills, based on 8 years of this.
