[...] This is no accidental food-vagina: this is the real deal, a true vagina cake for sure. It’s got the pink vulva, the red swirly bleeding womb background, the bow tie, even the bowl of spare clitorises. [via Feministe] [...]

I know Dana, as a Kiwi, the American fixation on the input of politicians spouses is really amusing. We get the occasional mention of Peter “Mr Helen Clark” Davis, and Burton Shipley (though that was mostly Jenny pulling him away from the farm, I think).

And if you’re going to run screaming from the room when politicians come on the radio, at least save it for Winston Peters. The guy’s a never-ending source of idiocy and hair gel. :)

And OMG, the vulva cake is so cute! It’s like what you bring for dessert to Judy Chicago’s dinner party!

I was SO hoping for a Judy Chicago joke, and I was not disappointed!

Well I can say with authority that this is fucking weird. You seriously seriously have serious (or “serious” lol) newspapers reporting on… Presidential candidate’s wive’s recipes?? And of course Clintons *rolls eyes*

We definitely don’t have that in NZ but then we don’t really talk about politician’s partners/spouses over here. Not much anyway

This is kind of funny because I yell and turn off the radio the minute I hear “National says…” (we have Labour and National rather than Democrats and Republicans) because it’ll just be some bitchy comment with no point. But recipe comparisons? I’m kind of in shock

I’d assumed the stuff with the silver dragees was intended to be poured over the cake before serving for that very reason.

I was totally appalled when I heard people in the MSM talking about potential first-lady recipes, so I’m glad i came across this post about it!
..and if that were my vulva cake, I’d make the red-raspberry topping look like it’s coming out of the vulva, lol. I want a menstruating cake!

If he goes back to before his heart surgeon took over his diet, I am positive that bill Clinton could come up with a perfectly good cookie recipe for the contest. My dad is almost as good a baker as my mother but he tendsa to stick to the Christmas fudge while I bring in the family pfferneussen.

Well, the other spouse recipe is called “Trouble” and it starts “Take one White House intern….”

wow. i completely thought that was supposed to be a shoe, at first. i was misled by the bowtie. even now that i know it’s a vulva, i *still* have a hard time seeing it…
