My nephew turned 13 last week. I cannot believe I am an aunt to a 13-year old.
I used to be the cool aunt, but lately I've not been making the cut. I've not been able to even get that grumpy, hormone-driven, crackling-voiced young man to even crack a smile.
When I found out he wanted a Super Mario cake for his birthday, I decided it was time to show him how cool his aunt could be. So the little guy and I colored fondant all week (we both had red food-colored hands for three days), researched Mario cakes online and came up with this.
I finally got a hug yesterday, and a bit of a smile as well.
