Alcohol and desserts

They say everything can be made better by alcohol. As scientists, we love testing theories!

Making desserts better than they already are is an ambitious feat, but it is our purpose in life. We decided to test if the formerly mentioned saying about alcohol could be applied to desserts as well. To remain objective, we decided to let professionals make the boozy dessert, and bought a massive slice of Bourbon Pecan Pie:


Our verdict: too bourbony. Not even whipped cream could make it better! MYTH BUSTED

SURPRISE!

You've been waiting for this. Get ready for it. We're finally revealing the results of that poll that has been up on this page for years now. There was no way for you guys to view the results before RIGHT NOW. I know you're all excited and stuff. So, GET READY FOR IT.



We are sad to inform you that we had to use a pie chart to tell you that cake is the winner in this poll. WE CALL DISCRIMINATION.

Also, the numbers didn't add up to a 100%? The Blogspot pollthing clearly doesn't know math.

IT'S A CAKESMAS MIRACLE!

Like Jesus itself on the very real first Christmas morning, NDSM has risen back from its ashes! That's the story, right? We're scientists, we don't know how Jesus works.

But we do know how to celebrate! With cake! And song! And cakesong!
We present "Carol of the Cakes":

Hark! How the cakes
Sweet tasty cakes
All seem to say
"Eat me today"
Cakesmas is here
Trans fats and cheer
To young and old
Both hot and cold

Yum yum ding dong
That is their song
With joyful ring
So much icing
Mouth shovelling

One seems to hear
Pies too appear
From everywhere
Filling the air

Oh how we pound
All cakes around
Fresh, even stale
All are for sale

Gaily they bring
Crumbs when they sing
Songs of cheer
Cakesmas is here
Merry, merry, merry cakesmas
Merry merry merry cakesmas

On, on they send
Cakes without end
Cinnamon, scones
To every home

Merry merry merry cakesmas
Merry merry cakesmas
Yum
Yum
Ding
Dong

MERRY CAKESMES TO ALL
AND TO ALL A GOOD PIE
