Shirley's cakes

the long version

Shirley hates cake and tells everyone what she doesn't like about each decorated cake she sees until her teacher explains that she doesn't have to like cake, but she should accept the choices of others. After Shirley tells her grandmother that she eats cake because she doesn't want to miss one that she will finally like, grandmother tells her she will probably have to make it herself. This prompts Shirley to start baking. Includes cake and frosting recipes and instructions.
