Gigantic cake

Today L and I have been out wandering the Surrey paths. It was blue sky, warm and generally very pleasant so a nice walk with the cameras sounded like a brilliant idea.

We headed out around one o'clock (hey it is Saturday and you don't have to get up early then). The target was to get to Watts tea house.

So we happily wandered along. Took lots of photos. Met some scary looking, but very sweet, highland cows. Took a couple of wrong turns and finally found the tea house.

Lyckily it was open, at this time we were getting rather hungry. Being a tea house we obviously had to get a cream tea (tea, scones, cream and jam) and a chocolate cake. The cake arrived immediately and both L and I got a big shock.


The size of the cake; it was enormous! It was enough to feed a whole family. It was in fact a quarter of the whole cake. And we got one piece each.

Every customer who came in commented on our cakes' size. Even the other waitresses did too. We became the big talking point.

After getting over the initial shock we started to photograph them. We needed proof. No one would believe us otherwise.

We had our cream tea and a little bit of the cake. But in the end we had to admit defeat. We just couldn't take it anymore. We both had a massive sugar rush and walked back home in high speed. Both craving for some salt to neutralise our taste buds.

I think we need to go for another walk tomorrow to get rid of all the calories and sugar.
