In honour of this question, I made a lemon cake. It’s a small cake, but it will be eaten in its entirety. And the icing will be licked.
I first realised I can buy whatever (my) money can buy when I got my own puppy as a young adult. That’s the ultimate freedom to my childhood self, to want a puppy and just go get it. It’s a good thing I didn’t have that freedom as a kid, however, because I was planning to have not just a dog, but two individuals of absolutely every species on Earth. I was going to keep them all in a fully-automated zoo, with kibble delivery for the lions via chutes (for safety).
Unlike @Dutchess_III, I have yet to understand that I can go wherever I want.
