A Grinchy Birthday

What 4 year old doesn't love the grinch? Ok, let's be honest. What person, no matter what age, doesn't love the grinch? I'm not talking strange human-like drawn-out story Jim Carey grinch, I mean the Grinch in it's pure form. The original. The way Dr. Suess intended. I'm not gonna lie, sometimes, as a kid, when no one was paying attention, I would slip it into the VCR in the middle of July. My kids, of course, have been well indoctrinated into the world of classic Christmas movies. These include (but of course,are  not limited to) Home Alone, "toy-mation" Rudolph, Santa Claus is coming to town, Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, and even the less well known Santa and the 3 Bears. But of course, and as it should be, the Grinch is the favourite. Lucky for us, my eldest has a birthday in December. You can imagine my excitement when a Grinch cake was requested! My sister Amanda and I were up to the task, because, as I have said before, Christmas equals baking. True story.
