Sorry Rose--but it was a pretty tasty cake! There's plenty left over for you to use. And KC--welcome home!

We particularly "love" your image of a cake that places "read" within quotation marks. It seems particularly astute, and most definitely not "unnecessary." It illustrates the transformation of literacy practices that occur daily in our Internet Age. The Internet is not making us stupid, it's rewiring our brains, it's changing the way we think, and that may be a good thing. We “love” you too, Historiann.
