hmmm - the letters say "Oz" and there's a yellow brick road
the chicken is about the size of Dorothy's little dog, Toto
I'll bet it dances to the music of Eldorado.
or is it only Disco that dances to ELO tunes?

BIuebird I've got so many questions about this photo but I'll start with: Is this your chicken in the foreground? Did you make the chicken cake? What the hell is going on in this photograph? lol No it's not my chicken, and I didn't make the cake. I've actually never decorated a cake in my life! I just found the photo on the net and thought it was funny. As for what's going on in the photo, I think the lady who made the cake was entering it into some kind of competition. The chicken in the picture is the one she used as a reference for the cake. I've no idea about the OZ on the door, though. That's a mystery to me! |

I keep noticing more things about it - is that a stack of prize ribbons in the upper left corner of the photo?
why is the Z backwards? is it a Z at all?
I was going to accuse you of putting an ELO backwards element into the photo - but now I learn it's not even your bird. LOL
I'm also a bit surprised that the chicken hasn't decided to peck that cake to bits.
there's a bit of strange magic going on in that photo.

BIuebird this is a very interesting photo you've found. More weird things I'm noticing: The chicken cake is really cool but why does it look like the chicken is standing on a plate of spaghetti noodles? And if the cake represents the chicken in the foreground, shouldn't he/she also be standing on a giant mound of spaghetti? The red plaid table cloth under the chicken cake only reinforces the impression that the chicken-cake-chicken is standing on a plate of spaghetti. |

orioles70Maybe the baker is an ELO fan, and added the weird Oz/backwards element on purpose? Yes, that's a well-behaved chicken. My chicken would have definitely been gobbling the cake! She has already stolen cake from my plate. elophileYou both have given me a lot to think about! I have a feeling that the noodly-looking bit is supposed to be a nest. I can see what look like eggs in it? The tablecloth is confusing, though!

, but we're OK. 
Apparently it's quite hard to see them with the naked eye, you need to be looking through a camera or other type of lens?
