Today was my student Wonderful's birthday. (Yes, her name is Wonderful. And yes, her parents (who also happen to be the owners of the school) think an awful lot of her.) She brought in a cake for all the students. It was a pretty typical Taiwanese cake, which is why I decided to take a picture. You see, a Taiwanese cake always has lot of fruit, which is just about the only good part; the cake part is light, dry, and completely tasteless; the frosting is thick, super-sugary, and devoid of richness; and it is always absolutely beautiful, tricking you time and again into having a slice. You know how much I love sweets, but I actually rather dislike Taiwanese cake.
