Reminds me of my cousin’s birthday cake. As we were eating dinner, I noticed the flowers in the middle of the table. After dinner, my aunt took the flowers out of the pot and said “Here’s your cake!” She had made a cake-like thing that looked like potting soil, complete with worms, which she troweled onto plates. It was pretty good (even though I am not a fan of gummy anything). ---

If you say “Gummies are nummy” then I would reply “You have the palate of a mummy”. ---
