diaper cake

Thanks to Google, I have a nifty personalized homepage where I get to select from various RSS feeds to populate it. One of my selections is the “How To” of the day. Today’s selection was How to make a diaper cake.

What the hell?

(btw, I also subscribe to the recipe of the day, and diaper cake wasn’t listed there)

I tried as hard as I could — before opening the link — to think of what that could possibly mean, something that didn’t involve diarrhea frosting and turd log flambe, but was completely and utterly unsuccessful.

Giving up, I clicked, and it turns out that you can take clean diapers, bundle them up, and turn them into a facsimile of a cake with towers, for the purpose of presenting something useful and aesthetically pleasing (??) to an expectant mother at her baby shower.

Color me disappointed.
