Checkered Board Cake

I let Luca get a little too close to the cake and he actually got a little lick.

For my birthday my mom made me (from scratch) a checkered board cake. This is my favorite cake and my mom makes the best cake. We had some with my family and then I took the rest of it home. I shared a little with Rich, but ate most of it myself. I love cake and I have a hard time sharing when it is so delicious and my birthday...sorry family.
