The AH-MAZING people I work with wanted to surprise one of our equally AH-MAZING security guards, Ty with a little birthday party! We ordered pizza and I was asked to make him a special sugar-free chocolate cake with sugar-free chocolate bettercream and I was happy to oblige! We didn’t know Ty’s full name so I just asked him! Tyler? Tyson? Nope! TYRONE! I’m like “STOP IT!” I knew I HAD to make a reference to the Erykah Badu song ‘Tyrone’ even tho he’s now old enough to take advantage of the “Wisdom discount” at work🤣 but also include some of his favorite things like food, pickleball, dark blue and purple(the purple didn’t show well in print but it was there). He LOVED the cake and it actually tasted pretty good! I made the rest of the work fam a cookie cake so they didn’t have to eat Ty’s cake just in case it was less than stellar🤣 He took it home and had it all to himself since his wife was on a trip to Europe! I was impressed that he got the reference to the song and even sang it a couple times! We love the mess out of him and we know we can always 🎶call Tyrone! CALL HIM🎶🤣 Happy Birthday old man🎉🥳
