Fairytale I : Banana+Cupcake
Once upon a time there was a delicious princess Cupcake that lived in the great land of Bakery. She was the daughter of the king of Bakery and the elegant queen of Bakery, who was from the coastal city of Cordonbleu, and she was very lonely. She had the most beautiful icing in Bakery, the most loyal muffins as her attendants, entertainment from the jester Crueller, and occasional visits from her relatives from across the Shelves, the Bagels, but Cupcake was bored.

You can work for me.
I'll hire you for free.
Play my X-Box
and my Halo 3
