Cake is obligatory. People who do not take cake will be punished by confiscation of their mead.

Cake and mead? I’m in. This has got to be better than dunking donuts in coffee!

The cake may be a lie but the mead is a libation.

I guess someone bumped his head here and decided to hang warning signs. Unfortunately the bump has damaged his English writing skills. Either that, or he had too much mead.

Of all the “mind your head” engrish, this one certainly takes the cake!

According to the yellow triangle, deelie-boppers must be work in this area.

You can have your take, but you can’t mead it too.

@jjhitt: looks to me like the danger is that a teeny guided missile will fly out of your head. (I mean your mead… whatever.)

Mead cake. Well. If they can make Swartzwaldkirschtorte, mead cake should be a cinch.

He bought me the mead five winters ago
And the cake the following fall
Then the crisp lousy beef and the slippery pig,
That was late ’48 I recall
Then last night in his apartment
He served me the fried cabbage gall
And I said as I ran down the hall

Take back your mead
Take back your cake
What made you think
That I was partial to Frank steak?
Take cake your mead
And all your Squids Lice
I don’t want fried horse crap
Or desktop bacteria rice

I’d be a lot happier with a belly full of mead.
