  • Broke down (it wasn't that hard) & bought a $20 strawberry cake & at first, was a little upset over how small it was (could feed 4 adults max.), but looks are deceiving & this was one of the best cakes I'VE EVER EATEN. Upon first bite, the 10,000 Maniacs song, City of Angels (about going to Los Angeles & being shocked at the contrast between the have's grotesque glamour, waste, & consumption & the squalid living conditions of the homeless have-not's) went through my head: Heaven, is this Heaven? O Heaven, is this Heaven...Where we are? It was in a word: Heavenly, & I'm not a guy that throws that word around lightly. Moist cake, light frosting...the only thing keeping it from floating away was the generously given, thickly cut, fresh-as-can-be strawberry halves inside the cake. The cake was full of grace & I could imagine Sumi quietly making it fresh this morning. I could taste the whole thought process, the Genesis / fruition of it from start to finish. I may have tripped out, but it was totally Biblical, maaaaannnnn! Each bite was a revelation & I was full (& thankful) w/ one quarter slice. It lasted the whole weekend, way longer than I expected it to, & it was a nice treat that taught me a lesson... Simplicity, elegance, silence, grace & beauty are the easiest things to achieve, yet we choose the opposite so many times to our detriment. We want things but believe that we have to go about getting it in the hardest, loudest, crudest ways possible (U.S. Healthcare, politics, Wall Street, reality TV, etc). If we would just let our objects of desire be, they would come into being. I am frequently accosted by beggars in Squirrel Hill asking for a dollar or any spare change. I usually shun them but in the future, I may buy them a piece of cake (pun intended) from Sumi's so that they too may experience an early taste of Heaven... (this is the Eden).
