Does This Make Me A Hyper-Calvinist?

So, it was my birthday this last Friday, and my wife surprised me with the most amazing cake I have ever seen. I thought this cake was timely considering we are celebrating Calvin’s 500th birthday this year (and it was in Latin, even better).

Diane, she had a local vendor in Albuquerque make it, I can’t tell you how exited I was when I saw it. I didn’t even want to cut it, or eat it for that matter.
Karen, the vendor who made it did a great job! http://www.uniquecakesbykaryn.com/

Do you know the difference between Presbyerian and Methodist coffee? The Methodist coffee has been de-calvinated.

Lopez, you should not eat that, it’s too cool. There’s a service that you can get it encased in Lucite, so that by the time I’m back in Albuquerque I can see it. Thanks.
