The Cake Mix Poem

Packet of Cake mix
Small gift bag
printed poem

This craft project is great fun to make.

I actually came up with the idea while seeing to the baby at 3am one morning. Then Rita and I put together the poem below.

Simply add a packet of cake mix to the gift bag, keep it's original packaging so the recipient can make the cake. If you use a boxed cake, write out the directions and include it in the bag.

----Cake Mix Poem ----

I hope you will excuse me for giving you this bag,
I did the very best I could with the precious time I had
I should have known from the start when the eggs fell through the shopping cart.
I set aside a day to bake, the only day I didn't wake.
Then the flour fell off the shelf, not on the floor but over myself.
I tried again with no success with cake mix running down my dress.
I've given up! its yours to bake, I hope you enjoy it for goodness sake.

I've been looking for some gifts to make for the upcoming holiday season since funds are a little low and I think this is the perfect gift. I know people will enjoy getting these mixes as much as I will enjoy giving them.The poem is the perfect touch.
