Tonight Finn and I will make a desperate bid to win an iPad2 by baking up a bourbon chocolate cake in a bundt pan; copious amounts of Jim Beam will ensure the proper amount of, um, personality is present. I hand it to my employer for cooking up (pun intended) a unique creativity-inspiring challenge; I’d say the only drawback is the lack of on-site baking facilities, which excludes about five of our household’s go-to dessert recipes.

Wish us luck.
