Can’t afford a designer handbag? Why not make one out of cheesecake?
Scrolling through my google suggestions, I stopped when I reached a perfume bottle with Parfum de Philly written on it. It was blue, with a geometric sliver top, and it was definitely cake. Nervous that this meant that Google had successfully surveilled me and merged my interests into one ad, I clicked on it and…
