Olive Oyl reading.
Hope it's been long enough since the last challenge to whet your appetite.
In the early nineties, a book was published where each story shared a single concept: "a wedding cake in the middle of the road."
In the early nineties, a book was published where each story shared a single concept: "a wedding cake in the middle of the road."
None of those stories were flash fiction, but let's see what we can do 
with that idea in a limited number of words.
Stories should be around 750 words, but anything under 1000 wrds is good. You can set your wedding cake on a road on Mars, in Montana, or anywhere at all. In other words, all genres are welcome.
The "wedding cake in the road" can be the main idea or a sidebar-so long as it's in there--like the gun in Plots with Guns.
Mystery Dawg will publish stories on Powder Burn Flash where no blog is available.
June seems like a good month for wedding cakes so let's shoot for June 4th.
Please don't post your story before June 4. Also let me or Gerald So or Aldo know before then. (You can always opt out if it doesn't work out).
I can see your cake in the road already!

Cake in the road may turn out to be egg on the face. Nevertheless, I'm in.
Okay-I'm in! Just call me Paulie Haversham!
Ah, before the elusive garter zips past me again, I'm in.
Here's my hat. There's the ring. Consider said hat thrown in said ring.
Mmmm, cake, I'm in!
I skipped the last challenge, to my regret. I'm in on this one.
I lost someone on here. I hate this monitoring comments. Come back.
Hi Patti. It was me.I'm in!
Thanks, Paul. I should have known-prolific Paul would be in.
I'm in.....in a violent, twisted sort of way....
Mmm... roads...
Can I join in, please? FFC virgin here.
You're scaring me.
Wedding cakes! Virgins! A perfect fit.
I will definitely give it a try.
I was hoping Mars or Montana might lure you in.
I caught the bouquet and came into the fray. ~ Absolutely*Kate
Great, Kate. I'd hope a woman might catch it.
Mmmm, cake.
Ah, what the hell. I'm in.
man Patti...I can hardly remember what's supposed to happen in two hours...I'll give it a go if'n I remember
I'll post reminders. Or write it now and stash it.
Hmmm...this could be a bit of a challenge, but I'm in.
Great. Remember it doesn't have to be about weddings. Just stick that cake in the road and go ahead with your murder and mayhem or with your ETS, or with your cowboys on the trail. Whatever.
Can I play?
I've been waiting for you, Randy.
Sorry I'm late--I was baking a cake. I'm in.

I was wondering. Great!
I'm going to give it a shot.
