Well well well. It's mom's birthday today and so I should do something for her and she can't complaint about me messing her space.

But I ran out of sugar and time. I just had to serve it. Mom was as lovely and loving as ever, she still said it tasted good. Dad was more honest though :p
Maybe I should make a tiramisu tomorrow.
