Cooking instruction summary:

Prepare the cake according to the directions of the recipe you choose. You can use whatever recipe you'd like or a white cake box mix -> this is what my mom ALWAYS does! I made this twice with my confetti cake recipe, doubling it and leaving out the sprinkles. Bake the cake and let it cool completely.Once the cake is cool, use the bottom a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the top of the cake. Whisk together the boiling water and the strawberry jello mix. Pour the mixture over top of the cake, equallyall over the surface. Pop the cake in the fridge for 2 to 4 hours or evenovernight.Remove the cake and top it with whipped cream. I use either fresh whipping cream or coconut cream. Frost the cake right before serving, then design your flag on top with the M&M'S. Serve immediately!

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
