Meg, I do wish you luck dear - that would be a nightmare - not a movie. Hehehe!

lol thanks for the smile at late evening lol

Oh dear. Sounds like one more good reason why I try to avoid cooking! Good luck finding the missing piece.

laughing my butt off at that one! Good luck straining the cake mixture! OOh! it's going to be sticky. Love and blessings Chris

Hope you are lucky to find the missing piece quickly. Maybe if would be quicker to cut your losses and start that job again! Merry Christmas! Hugs, Lidia

Well, good luck with that, hope you find the chain and don't have to start over! It'll be a Very Merry Cherry Cake!

ha ha. My mum used to bake a penny and then a 2 cent piece into here Christmas pudding The person who found it got to keep it.

Too Funny! Sorry, sounds like something from "I Love Lucy" Just call it lucky cherry cake!
Hugs and a very Merry Christmas!,Nadyne

LOL! At least it is gold, so it will not poison anyone, remember the old currency and our parents used to use the old silver coins in the puddings ....my mum kept them long after we went to dollar and cents. good luck straining.... Hugs Sally

A little gold never hurt anyone! That is too funny! What else is on the menu!

Meganne, Maybe chain instead of the old coins we used to get. If you don't find it you will have to tell everyone to chew 50 times before they swallow.

Not laughing just being so glad this didn't happen to me, hope you didn't have a mess to clean up and so glad you found the piece of chain instead of someone while eating your cake.

lol ~ Only in the movies and at Meganne's house.

Gee Meganne. Can't you stay out of trouble? Good luck finding that piece. You could send me a piece of cake. I have tooth that could use a filling. :)

When I was growing up, my mom or my aunt would put a toothpick in to the cake once it was baked and before it was frosted. No one knew exactly where the toothpick was. So when the cake was served, the person who got the toothpick got the "award" of doing the dishes. That happened when ever we had cake. So maybe you can just start a new family tradition. :) Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself and carry on. Either that or name the cake 24 karat gold cake (or what ever metal the bracelet consisted of. Humor!! It helps in life and eases the pain!!!! I bet you find that this is the best cake you ever make.

And here I thought I was the only person on the planet that stuff like that happened to... LOL! Its nice to know that I'm in good company.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, too.

In the UK it is traditional to hide coins in the Christmas pudding - you could pretend that it was deliberate!

Hope you found the missing piece ok, at least it was only the safetychain not the actual bracelet. New meaning for gold in the teeth. LOL hugs Helen

Makes a change from finding a coin! Just make a game out of it and whgoever finds the chain cxan bee the ueen or king of the day (or do the dishes!)

Sis, was laughing so hard I almost fell out of my chair. I think you could have written the scripts for the "I Love Lucy" shows. Send me the recipe for your Cherry Cake, think my bunch would love it. Hope you have a blessed Christmas and don't eat too much.
Love n Hugs, Sis

Wow that would be some piece of cake. Cindy B
