oh, the early ones were the lucky ones

My parents now have their own PayPal account, so the PayPal button you see will now route your payments to them-- NO MORE HOMINID MIDDLE MAN!

One thing to note: you folks who ordered cakes before today were lucky, lucky, lucky. We discovered that shipping costs were actually around $6.50, so that's what shipping is now, instead of the original $4. We know you won't mind; some catalogs offer not-as-bombtits cakes for shamelessly high prices, like, say, $50 or more.

So hit that button and BUY SOME DAMN CAKE.

UPDATE: Apparently, a harsh tone works. Two more cakes ordered (thank you, thank you, thank you). A quick correction: when I set up the PayPal button for the parents, we switched from percentage shipping charges to flat-rate. So guess what? Buying two cakes, because it's within the $10-50 range, means you still pay only $6.50-- total-- for shipping. So two cakes, as it turns out, are a better deal than one.
