Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 06, 2022

Well it’s not like those of us in the comment section are able to get the cake, so we’re double safe. I think:-O.

Listen to Marigold the cake-LOVER, boys and girls!

way to be demanding, Marigold

Eating cake is the only real reason to attend a party anyway. Don’t try to tell me otherwise.

Gumby…

Priorities, priorities.

Nice to see Mari take a poke, er… stab, er… whatever, at speechifying.

Boy that “Takes the Cake” doesn’t it?!

Agree.

…Where’s Stella the Sphinx?

GASP! She’s serious!

OMG! Such a surprise! Marigold likes cake! But we’re double safe, we can’t even SEE the cake!

She’s pokey, mon.

Today’s strip made me think of Ichabod Crane in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow”. Ichabod tended to play around with women – including wives and mothers – who were good cooks.

“If you cake-likers do not leave me some, I shall poke you with my horn.”

(senses a violent threat in this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

Let them eat cake.

She wouldn’t actually poke them.

The cake threat is a lie.

Marigold, I have some leftover cupcakes from my club meeting last night that you are welcome to come get.

So, Celestia loving cake is not just a one-off for magical equines.
