Caesar himself was quite devoted to boldness and fortune; alea jacta est he said and the goddess of fortune favored him for many years.

in the end, she did not. it is a tricky thing, fortune and quite a riddle to guess.

[ that aside ]

An assistance is needed! For baking a cake to a friend whom I favor greatly and who, I decided, celebrates his birthday today.

and shame on me for not reminding you of such.

yes. that way we would hold to this promise; if we do not, we will know there is reason for concern.

I should have known regardless.

And we can check to make sure and not have to sit and worry needlessly.
