Childhood is so short, those baby teeth will all fall out, and my children are always moving about and exercising. So I say let them eat cake, let them have the pleasure, and let them have the fun.
It wont be long before they learn the guilt and consequences that come with age and responsibility. I long to see cake as just cake, but now when I look at my middle I see the signs of cake gone before, cake loved and cake enjoyed. Cake comes with baggage. For a child though, baggage is something someone else carries.
Go forth little children and enjoy your cake.

Ha, ha love it! What a great attitude. I have spent so much time over the years worrying about my kids' diet. Surprise, surprise, my 21 year old is healthy and strong and these two will be as well. In spite of the cake (and there was lots of cake). ;)
Cake is a treat. It would be great for Little Miss and B to always have that view. This particular cake was so yummy I am sure Marie Antoinette or whoever was not referring to that one! She liked to slum down and play the country maid in Le Hameau a tiny village built for her at Versailles. I am sure she just got a bad press.
