Funky Horse Cakes

There is nothing horse people like better than a well-made horsey cake. It seems in many cases, the more life-like the better.

Some of Them Freak Me Out

I’m not so sure I’m on board with all of these, but some of them are really cute and it is fun to get ideas for treating a fellow horse lover on their birthday.

Most of them are put together by professional cake makers, but I suspect some of them were made by adventurous novice bakers too. Hats off to the artists who did a bang up job of turning equines into yummy desserts.

Of course it is fitting that of all of the animals out there, horses like their own kind the best. They seem to genuinely form affectionate bonds with one another and are known to become depressed should they be separated or should one pass away.

Horses in Strange Situations

Naughty Horse Sometimes horses do the silliest things, which I guess is part of the reason we love them so dearly.

Don’t Worry, Everyone is OK

From what I’ve read, all of these animals recovered with minor injuries and no serious harm was done to anything other than their dignity.

So it’s ok to have a chuckle over them now, although I’m sure no one was laughing at the time. Good thing for us (not so much the horse) they stopped the rescue long enough to take a few snapshots.

Image from Despair

We all know the horrible motivational posters often found in doctors office waiting rooms, DMV locations and high school principal offices. They make the cynic in all of us roll it’s eyes, but someone somewhere still makes them.

A New Twist

It’s not a really a new twist, but it’s a clever one. Whoever started the de-motivational poster meme was quite a character. The idea has grown from just changing the originals to creating new posters specifically for de-motivational messages. Here are some horse themed posters that are sure to get a chuckle…even if you have seen them already.

Horse Translated

There is a degree of horsemanship in almost every country on the planet & we thought it would be fun for horse lovers to see what the word horse looks like in other languages. It’s interesting to note the differences (& similarities) that can be found in each language.
