For my grandmother's birthday our parents have organized a surprise party, so I and my cousins wanted to do something special for her.
Last year we had already tried to organize a party like that, but unfortunately there was no surprise: Grandma guessed it! We weren't good liars... But this year we were more organized!
The day before the party we met to prepare a cake! During lunch we browsed some magazines about desserts, and we decided to cook a chocolate cake (from the picture it looked very inviting!). Working in the kitchen we had a great time, and the result wasn't bad at all. In fact, as well as look good, the cake gave off a delicious smell! But perhaps we rejoiced too soon... Unfortunately, the fateful day, the cake had assumed a totally different aspect! The cover showed horrible cracks! We were really disappointed, but despite.. all the party went well, we saw Grandma so happy that everything else did not count!
The dining table was very long (we are an extra-large family!) and the lunch was delicious as always. When we gave our little surprise to Grandma she was moved and about the ugly appearance of the cake... we  laughed about it!
So also this time wasn't good, but  I promised: next time it will be perfect!
