A young boy finally gets what he asks for

Sammy howled in petulant anger.

"I want caaaake!"

Aunt Frida slid the confection, covered in white chocolate frosting, under Sammy's nose. But Sammy still pouted. "I wanted a Pale Face cake, just like the cartoon," he moaned.

His brother, Murray, rolled his eyes. "It is a Pale Face cake, little bro. Look closer..."

The boy finally looked happy as he bent to inspect his cake. Suddenly, Murray pushed his brother's face into the cake. "Now you got a dang pale face cake!"

Everyone chuckled as a surprised Sammy goggled at them through a nice white mask.

Just like Pale Face.
