Ed's Chocolate Cake

Ed is my co worker and brought me a piece of this chocolate cake because he felt bad for stealing the opportunity to go home early one day from work. We were over staffed one day so they asked for a volunteer to take a day of vacation. I volunteered and was on my out the door when Ed stepped in and because he has more seniority than me he was granted the opportunity. I wasn't really that mad but he felt bad and I probably wouldn't have gotten to taste this cake otherwise. This is the best chocolate cake I've ever had. Its AWESOME!!!!
